1. 6. X-ray scattering and spectroscopy of supercooled water and ice

   Författare :Jonas A. Sellberg; Anders Nilsson; Lars G. M. Pettersson; Thomas Loerting; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; supercooled water; ice; x-ray scattering; x-ray spectroscopy; free-electron laser; kemisk fysik; Chemical Physics;

   Sammanfattning : This thesis presents experimental studies of water and ice at near-atmospheric pressures using intense x-rays only accessible at synchrotrons and free-electron lasers. In particular, it focuses on the deeply supercooled, metastable state and its implications on ice nucleation. LÄS MER

3. 7. X-Ray Investigations of the Liquid-Liquid Critical Point Hypothesis in Supercooled Water

   Författare :Alexander Späh; Anders Nilsson; Martin Meedom Nielsen; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; water; supercooled water; x-ray scattering; free electron x-ray laser; liquid-liquid phase transition; liquid-liquid critical point; x-ray speckle visibility spectroscopy; kemisk fysik; Chemical Physics;

   Sammanfattning : This thesis presents experimental x-ray scattering studies on supercooled liquid water. A liquid-liquid transition between two structurally distinct configurations has been found in deeply supercooled water, indicating the existence of a liquid- liquid critical point. LÄS MER

4. 8. Simulations of Biomolecular Fragmentation and Diffraction with Ultrafast X-ray Lasers

   Författare :Christofer Östlin; Carl Caleman; Nicusor Timneanu; Helmut Grubmüller; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; X-ray free-electron laser; X-ray imaging; Single particle imaging; Computer simulation; Radiation damage; Molecular dynamics; Diffraction theory; Coulomb explosion; Sample heterogeneity; Diffractive noise; XFEL; SPI; Physics with specialization in Biophysics; Fysik med inriktning mot biofysik;

   Sammanfattning : Studies of biomolecules have recently seen substantial developments. New X-ray lasers allow for high-resolution imaging of protein crystals too small for conventional X-ray crystallography. Even structures of single particles have been determined at lower resolutions with these new sources. LÄS MER

5. 9. Simulations of ultrafast photon-matter interactions for molecular imaging with X-ray lasers

   Författare :Ibrahim Eliah Dawod; Nicusor Timneanu; Carl Caleman; Adrian P. Mancuso; Lars Schäfer; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; X-ray free-electron laser; molecular dynamics; radiation damage; plasma simulations; density functional theory¸ coherent diffractive imaging; protein structure; X-ray crystallography; single particle imaging;

   Sammanfattning : Biological structure determination has had new avenues of investigation opened due to the introduction of X-ray free-electron lasers (XFELs). These X-ray lasers provide an extreme amount of photons on ultrafast timescales used to probe matter, and in particular biomolecules. LÄS MER

7. 10. X-ray free-electron laser based methods for structural and ultrafast dynamics studies of a photosynthetic reaction centre

   Författare :David Arnlund; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; WAXS; wide-angle x-ray scattering; XFEL; x-ray free-electron laser; reaction center; structural biology; ultrafast dynamics;

   Sammanfattning : Life on earth is fuelled by the energy of sunlight, which must first be captured and converted into a chemical energy form useful to the cell. This process is known as photosynthesis and the major pathway of this energy conversion is via photosynthetic reaction centres. LÄS MER
