Frake et al. compared various chemometric approaches to the determination of the median particle size in lactose monohydrate with calibration models constrncted by MLR, PLS, PCR or ANNs. Overall, the ensuing models allowed mean particle sizes over the range 20-110/tm to be determined with an error less than 5 pm, which is comparable to that of the laser light diffraction method nsed as reference. Predictive ability was similar for models based on absorbance and second-derivative spectra this confirms that spectral treatments do not suppress the scattering component arising from differences in particle size. 

The coherent X-ray scattering component of a given molecular configuration measured in system L (laboratory system) is written as... 

The states correspond to wave packet controlled in the far past and in the far future, respectively. Let us see what this means. In the absence of external time-dependent fields, the scattering component of the time-dependent wave function i/r(f) can be expanded in terms of either of the two sets of scattering states for example, those with incoming boundary conditions... 

Polonium crystals have a simple cubic structure with atoms separated by d = 336.6 pm. If a polonium crystal is exposed to X-rays with k = 154 pm (the most common source wavelength), find the angle 20 which corresponds to the deflection of the strongest scattered component. 

Multiple scatter by its very nature arises in several uncorrelated scatter interactions, and its amplitude is often insensitive to the precise composition of the object under investigation. Its spatial variation by the same token is often small [3], A position-independent multiple scatter component can be judiciously estimated from calibration measurements or from Monte Carlo photon transport simulation programs and subtracted as necessary from experimental profiles. 

Figure 12 In-specular (bottom spectrum) and off-specular (middle and top) HREELS measurements for 0/Ag(21 0), recorded for the same electron energy and for the same scattering angle, 0S. The loss at 56meV has a remarkably strong impact scattering component which leads to an inversion of the intensity ration with the 40 meV loss for out-of-specular conditions.

A set of measurements with the three magic angles allows one to determine the three scattering components with different time dependencies separately. Examples are presented in the next section. The following pieces of information become accessible in this way ... 

The mechanism selecting two scattering components out of three is polarization interference. The polarization of each scattering contribution (for sufficiently weak, linearly polarized input fields) is linear but with tilted polarization planes. The isotropic scattering, for example, occurs in the plane of the incident probing field. Blocking of this component simply requires a crossed analyzer with 0A = 0P — 90°. 

The separation of the individual scattering components in time-domain CARS provides a wealth of experimental information not accessible in earlier work from the spectroscopic method. As a result, different aspects of molecular dynamics in condensed matter can be investigated. 

The system CH3LCDCI3 was studied by IR and Raman spectroscopy two decades ago (56-58). The vi frequency in wavenumber units is a>o/2jtc = 2950 cm 1 in the neat liquid and varies approximately linearly with dilution. The linewidth (isotropic scattering component) in the neat... 

A Raman spectrum is obtained by exposure of a sample to a monochromatic source of exciting photons and measurement of the frequencies of the scattered light. Because the intensity of the Raman scattered component is much lower than the Rayleigh scattered component, a highly selective monochromator and a very sensitive detector are required.
