Description

Introduction to small angle scattering (SAXS). Calculation of expected pattern from a suspension of spherical particles. Spherical coordinates. The Rayleigh function. Effects of interparticle correlation and size dispersity. Time 10:02.

Comments

Videos 5.1-5.5 discuss techniques of small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), commonly used to study dispersions such as proteins or colloids, or void distributions in a solid material. These videos are independently accessible without viewing those in previous sections.
