The influence of interface roughness on Mössbauer filtration of synchrotron radiation at an isotope interface
1L. D. Landau Institute for Theoretical Physics, Kosygin str. 2, 117334 Moscow, Russia.
Abstract:
The influence of interface irregularities on synchrotron radiation Mössbauer filtration at an isotope interface is examined theoretically. Calculations are performed for a random-roughness interface model for a (56)Fe/(57)Fe isotope interface. The analysis shows that, despite a drop in the efficiency in the real structures compared with the idealized structures, the efficiency of Mössbauer filtration of synchrotron radiation remains high enough to ensure a successful experiment. In particular it was found that, as well as a regular saw-like profile of the external interface, a randomly rough profile of the external interface may also be used in the Mössbauer filtration experiment if the roughness parameters satisfy certain demands.

X-ray Diffraction of Biological Samples
According to Bragg's law, when X-rays strike the sample positioned on a stage, the rays are scattered by the electron clouds around the sample atoms. The X-ray diffraction or scattering is caused by constructive interference of the X-ray waves that reflect off the internal crystal...
