      abstract     = {The world of nanoscale objects and dimensions – which
                      until recently had largely been a subject of merely
                      scientific interest – is poised to revolutionise
                      technology at a breathtaking pace and will even affect our
                      everyday life in many respects. The development of faster
                      and more powerful computers is based on progress in
                      semiconductor nanotechnology, also incorporating
                      optoelectronics. The simultaneous evolution of magnetic data
                      storage technology is driven by progress in nanomagnetism.
                      The exploitation of novel quantum effects in many fields is
                      tied to the creation of nanoscale objects and structures. On
                      the other hand, nanostructured surfaces also exhibit
                      particular mechanical and adhesive properties, exemplified
                      by the “lotus effect”, which is now employed to create
                      stain-free and selfcleaning surfaces and surface coatings.
                      It is obvious that not only the creation of nanoscale
                      structures, but particularly their characterisation and
                      visualisation are essential ingredients in design and
                      development leading to the fabrication of yet smaller
                      structures and a refined understanding of their unique
                      properties. Real progress in nanoscience is hence closely
                      associated with the development of new techniques in
                      experimental analysis to address problems on the nanoscale
                      – and, indeed, dramatic improvements in the capabilities
                      of experimental methods involving the interaction of
                      electrons, neutrons and synchrotron radiation with the solid
                      state have been witnessed in recent years. This is partly
                      due to substantial advances in the performance of beam and
                      radiation sources as well as instrumental components such as
                      monochromators, imaging lenses, polarisers, detectors, and
                      spectrometers, all at roughly the same time. Equally
                      important, however, has been the outstanding progress made
                      in the development of new innovative analysis concepts
                      together with the concomitant numerical methods, which allow
                      direct benefits to be derived from advanced instrumentation.
                      As a result, there are more and more areas of solid-state
                      research where state-of-the-art analysis techniques, such as
                      aberration-corrected electron microscopy, high-energy or
                      resonant synchrotron x-ray scattering, neutron scattering
                      with spherical polarisation analysis or with
                      nanoelectronvolt energy resolution, as well as
                      high-resolution electron spectroscopy and spectromicroscopy,
                      are seen to permit macroscopic material properties to be
                      epistemologically designed from microscopic observations.
                      Hence, this basic approach is becoming increasingly
                      important in identifying material imperfections and
                      designing new materials with fascinating and also beneficial
                      properties. All of the above probing techniques –
                      irrespective of whether they use electrons, neutrons or
                      synchrotron radiation – are now essential tools for
                      exploring the nanoworld of complex materials in both bulk
                      and reduced dimensions. Therefore, this is also the ideal
                      time to outline when, how, and why appropriate techniques
                      should be used for specific problems to gain deeper
                      scientific insights into condensed matter phenomena as well
                      as to optimise processing steps in solid-state technology.
                      Accordingly, the 38th IFF Spring School entitled Probing the
                      Nanoworld – Microscopies, Scattering and Spectroscopies of
                      the Solid State organised by the Institute of Solid-State
                      Research (IFF) of Research Centre Jülich focuses on both
                      essential fundamentals and the latest developments in
                      probing the solid state by the application of advanced
                      microscopy, scattering and spectroscopy techniques. A
                      variety of contributions address cutting-edge aspects of
                      experimental analysis techniques in conjunction with
                      applications related to materials science. Introductory
                      contributions focus on the structural and electronic
                      properties of the solid state in both bulk and reduced
                      dimensions, and, thus form the basis for understanding
                      primary techniques and major methodological concepts.
                      Supplementary contributions address basic excitation
                      mechanisms and the interaction of radiation with matter.
