Synchrotron X-ray small-angle scattering (SAS) is a powerful technique for characterizing materials at the nanoscale. By analysing the scattering patterns of X-rays as they interact with a sample, SAXS provides insights into the size, shape, and distribution of nanoparticles, pores, and other structural features. This method is particularly valuable for studying materials such as polymers, biomaterials, colloids, and mesoporous materials. Synchrotron sources offer high-intensity X-rays, enabling high-resolution measurements with excellent sensitivity to small structural variations, making SAXS an indispensable tool for materials research and development.
The University of Manchester at Harwell (UoMaH) would like to draw your attention to a training course on the fundamentals of small angle scattering hosted by the team of I22 at Diamond Light Source on the 24-27 February 2025 at Diamond Light Source, Harwell, Oxfordshire.
The course is now open for applications and includes:
The theory of Small Angle Scattering (SAS), The use of in-house and external data reduction and analysis software and Hands-on experience using the B21, DL-SAXS and I22 SAXS beamlines here at Diamond.
