Extract

Conventional x-ray scattering studies have been limited to photon energies (wavelengths) in the 5 to 20 KeV (approx. 2A to 0..5A) regime. With these energies absorption lengths limit the volume of illumination to the first tens of microns of samples. If it were possible to use x-rays of very high energies, true bulk (tens of millimeters) samples could be studied. The availability, intensity and resolution possible with high energies will be discussed and their role in the expanding field of x-ray scattering presented. Preliminary studies at the Cornell High Energy Synchrotron Source (CHESS) will form the basis of these discussions.
