X-ray reflectivity measurements of surface layering in liquid mercury.
The surface normal structure of the mercury liquid-vapor interface has been investigated by measuring the x-ray reflectivity out to a momentum transfer of qz 2.5 Å . The results provide direct experimental proof of surface layering in liquid metals. The layer spacing is given by the atomic dimensions of the Hg atoms. The minimum layer width agrees well with the predictions of capillary wave t...
متن کاملMedium-range fluctuations accompanying the metal-nonmetal transition in expanded fluid hg.
We have carried out small angle x-ray scattering experiments of expanded fluid Hg in the metal-nonmetal (M-NM) transition region around 9.0 g cm(-3). Increase of small angle scattering intensity following the Ornstein-Zernike equation is clearly observed in the M-NM transition region as well as near the liquid-vapor critical point at 5.8 g cm(-3). The short-range correlation length, R, becomes ...
متن کاملRadiation measurements around X-ray cabinet systems.
Security personnel who operate X-ray units for the control of hand luggage and personal items at airports are generally not under dosimetric surveillance. A significant increase in the number of inspected items per passenger, due to rigorous air traffic security measures, raises a question of extended exposure of these workers to scattered X-ray radiation. A new approach to investigating direct...
متن کاملX-ray diffraction measurements for breast tissue analysis
Biological tissues exhibit elastic x-ray scatter properties unique to individual tissue types. It has been suggested that these properties could be exploited in the discrimination of tissues in diagnostic radiology, particularly in mammographic imaging. The work in this thesis investigates the elastic scatter from human breast tissues with a view to moving the Diffraction Enhanced Breast Imagin...
متن کاملThe first X-ray diffraction measurements on Mars
The Mars Science Laboratory landed in Gale crater on Mars in August 2012, and the Curiosity rover then began field studies on its drive toward Mount Sharp, a central peak made of ancient sediments. CheMin is one of ten instruments on or inside the rover, all designed to provide detailed information on the rocks, soils and atmosphere in this region. CheMin is a miniaturized X-ray diffraction/X-r...
