X-ray diffraction imaging exploits the scattering of X-ray beams by matter to reconstruct structural information at atomic to nanoscale resolutions. Traditional crystallographic approaches rely on ...

What if scientists could get a taste of discovery as soon as their experiment finishes? Thanks to a new machine learning tool called DONUT, researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Argonne ...

Researchers combine probabilistic X-ray diffraction analysis with LLM-based chemical reasoning to rank competing phase ...

When laser energy is deposited in a target material, numerous complex processes take place at length and time scales that are too small to visually observe. To study and ultimately fine-tune such ...

The new method can determine crystal structures underlying experimental data thus far difficult to analyze. A joint research team led by Yuuki Kubo and Shiji Tsuneyuki of the University of Tokyo has ...

X-ray crystallography, like mass spectroscopy and nuclear spectroscopy, is an extremely useful material characterization technique that is unfortunately hard for amateurs to perform. The physical ...
