Eagerly awaited, this second edition of a best-selling text
comprehensively describes from a modern perspective the basics of
x-ray physics as well as the completely new opportunities offered
by synchrotron radiation. Written by internationally acclaimed
authors, the style of the book is to develop the basic physical
principles without obscuring them with excessive mathematics.
The second edition differs substantially from the first edition,
with over 30% new material, including: A new chapter on
non-crystalline diffraction - designed to appeal to the large
community who study the structure of liquids, glasses, and most
importantly polymers and bio-moleculesA new chapter on x-ray
imaging - developed in close cooperation with many of the leading
experts in the fieldTwo new chapters covering non-crystalline
diffraction and imagingMany important changes to various sections
in the book have been made with a view to improving the
expositionFour-colour representation throughout the text to clarify
key conceptsExtensive problems after each chapter
There is also supplementary book material for this title
available online (http: //booksupport.wiley.com).
Praise for the previous edition:
"The publication of Jens Als-Nielsen and Des McMorrow's
"Elements of Modern X-ray Physics" is a defining moment in the
field of synchrotron radiation... a welcome addition to the
bookshelves of synchrotron-radiation professionals and students
alike.... The text is now my personal choice for teaching x-ray
physics..." - Physics Today, 2002
