Towards phasing using high X-ray intensity
X-ray free-electron lasers (XFELs) show great promise for macromolecular structure determination from sub-micrometre-sized crystals, using the emerging method of serial femtosecond crystallography. The extreme brightness of the XFEL radiation can multiply ionize most, if not all, atoms in a protein, causing their scattering factors to change during the pulse, with a preferential 'bleaching' of ...
متن کاملIterative phasing for fluctuation X-ray scattering.
Fluctuation X-ray scattering (FXS) is an extension of small- and wide-angle X-ray scattering in which the X-ray snapshots are taken below rotational diffusion times. This technique, performed using a free electron laser or ultrabright synchrotron source, provides significantly more experimental information compared with traditional solution scattering methods. We develop a multitiered iterative...
متن کاملCalculation of x-ray scattering patterns from nanocrystals at high x-ray intensity
We present a generalized method to describe the x-ray scattering intensity of the Bragg spots in a diffraction pattern from nanocrystals exposed to intense x-ray pulses. Our method involves the subdivision of a crystal into smaller units. In order to calculate the dynamics within every unit, we employ a Monte-Carlo-molecular dynamics-ab-initio hybrid framework using real space periodic boundary...
متن کاملMultiwavelength anomalous diffraction at high x-ray intensity.
The multiwavelength anomalous diffraction (MAD) method is used to determine phase information in x-ray crystallography by employing anomalous scattering from heavy atoms. X-ray free-electron lasers (FELs) show promise for revealing the structure of single molecules or nanocrystals, but the phase problem remains largely unsolved. Because of the ultrabrightness of x-ray FEL, samples experience se...
متن کاملHigh-intensity double-pulse X-ray free-electron laser
The X-ray free-electron laser has opened a new era for photon science, improving the X-ray brightness by ten orders of magnitude over previously available sources. Similar to an optical laser, the spectral and temporal structure of the radiation pulses can be tailored to the specific needs of many experiments by accurately manipulating the lasing medium, that is, the electron beam. Here we repo...
