AB - Most of what we know about structure and dynamics of condensed matter systems on an atomic
AB - length- and timescale stems from X-ray and neutron scattering. The IFF Spring School 2012 comes
AB - timely to the centennial anniversary of the discovery of X-ray scattering from single crystals by Max
AB - von Laue, Walter Friedrich and Paul Knipping in 1912. Their breakthrough discovery proved the wave
AB - nature of X-rays as well as the microscopic structure of crystals as being composed of periodic arrangements
AB - of atoms. In 1914 the Noble prize was awarded to Max von Laue for this discovery. Most
AB - of our present-day knowledge on the atomic structure of crystalline and amorphous matter is based on
AB - the work following Max von Laue employing laboratory X-ray sources for X-ray crystallography.
AB - Since the middle of last century synchrotron radiation with its unique properties was employed for
AB - more challenging studies, e.g. in macromolecular crystallography. With the advent of research reactors
AB - nearly 40 years later, neutron scattering came into play with its alternate contrast mechanism, its sensitivity
AB - to atomic magnetism and collective excitations in solids. Again the Noble prize was awarded to
AB - the two pioneers of neutron diffraction and inelastic scattering, Clifford Shull and Bertram Brockhouse,
AB - in 1994....
