Crystallography and Radiation Phenomena

Crystallography and Radiation Phenomena is a research topic within Condensed Matter Physics. Science Explorer counts 14k research works in it since 1950. 13.4% of them reached the world's top 10% most cited for their field and year.

This cluster of papers focuses on the interaction of relativistic particles with strong crystalline fields, utilizing techniques such as nuclear resonant spectroscopy, synchrotron radiation, crystal collimation, and X-ray holography. It explores applications in Mössbauer spectroscopy, electromagnetic transparency, volume reflection, and atomic structure analysis. The cluster also delves into the dynamics of particle beams within crystals.
