| a photon of penetrating electromagnetic radiation emitted from an atomic nucleus; electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths shorter than 1/10 of a nanometer |
| a quantized state in which matter may exist, having constant energy and separated from others in the series by finite quantities of energy |
| X-ray diffraction | |
| —n | |
| the scattering of X-rays on contact with matter, resulting in changes in radiation intensity, which is used for studying atomic structure | |
| x-ray diffraction
The scattering of x-rays by crystal atoms, producing a diffraction pattern that yields information about the structure of the crystal. X-ray diffraction is used in x-ray crystallography. |
