X-ray photon correlation spectroscopy (XPCS) enables the study of sample dynamics
between micrometer and atomic length scales. As a coherent scattering technique, it …

X-ray-based analytics are routinely applied in many fields, including physics, chemistry,
materials science, and engineering. The full potential of such techniques in the life sciences …

The soft-grainy microstructure of cooked egg yolk is the result of a series of out-of-
equilibrium processes of its protein-lipid contents; however, it is unclear how egg yolk …

While the interplay between liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) and glass formation in
biological systems is highly relevant for their structure formation and thus function, the exact …

A solid loaded beyond the yield stress loses its elastic properties and becomes plastic. From
a microscopic point of view, this limit corresponds to the condition where plastic regions …

Recent progress in synchrotron based X-ray scattering methods applied to colloid science is
reviewed. An important figure of merit of these techniques is that they enable in situ …

Stimuli-responsive polymers are an important class of materials with many applications in
nanotechnology and drug delivery. The most prominent one is poly-N-isopropylacrylamide …

The X-ray-induced, nonthermal fluidization of the prototypical SiO2 glass is investigated by X-
ray photon correlation spectroscopy in the small-angle scattering range. This process is …

The gelation of PEGylated gold nanoparticles dispersed in a glycerol–water mixture is
probed in situ by x-ray photon correlation spectroscopy. Following the evolution of structure …

X‐ray photon correlation spectroscopy (XPCS), a synchrotron source‐based technique to
measure sample dynamics, is used to determine hydrodynamic diameters of gold …
