Pioneering spectrometers for high photon energy x-rays
A new Laue spectrometer located in the European XFEL FXE equipment location. The crystal analyzer is in the center of the image. Credit: Europe XFEL Researchers at European XFEL have developed a new device for X-ray measurements with high photon energy (so-called Laue spectrometer). This detects X-ray light with photon energy above 15 kilorectron volts with improved efficiency and highest…

X-rays advance understanding of Earth’s core-mantle boundary and super-Earth magma oceans
Schematic diagram of the experimental setup available at the MEC end station. Four epiX 10k detectors cover the Q range from 15 to 106 nm-1 with an X-ray beam energy of 17 keV. The complete signal can be reconstructed by stitching together the diffuse scattering recorded by each detector. Credit: Nature Communications (2024).
