After a year of installation and commissioning, the new electron storage ring at the heart of the Advanced Photon Source—powered by a world's first injection technique—is ready for business. A new era ...
Using ESA's XMM-Newton satellite and NASA's Chandra spacecraft, German astronomers have observed a supersoft X-ray source designated RX J0513.9−6951. Results of the observations, published on the ...
A toroidal cathode emits electrons that are guided along trajectories (dark blue) to the inside surface of the conical primary target (anode). Broadband bremsstrahlung X-rays (white) from this primary ...
Overlapping photoelectron lines and Auger features are a common issue in the analysis of complex materials. The standard approach of switching to an achromatic Mg X-ray source may become undesirable ...
