AIM & SCOPE

This user dedicated microsymposium (UDM) aims to highlight the complementary nature of diffuse and inelastic (IXS) X-ray scattering capabilities available at the ESRF and provide a space for scientific discussion amongst the user base in these areas. The IXS capabilities at the ESRF have been well developed over the last 20+ years and with the EBS upgrade remain one of the best in the world. However the addition of diffuse scattering capabilities in more recent years has provided many new opportunities. There is now an active and engaged user base utilising the synergy between the two techniques and this UDM aims to bring the community together to present their recent work as well as discuss both new scientific ideas and provide suggestions for additional desired capabilities at the ESRF. A non-exhaustive selection of areas that will be covered, includes thermal diffuse scattering, phase transitions and critical diffuse scattering, state-of-the-art modelling approaches, disorder-phonon coupling, diffuse "roadmapping" for IXS studies and the progress/challenges of sample environment development for diffuse and inelastic scattering studies.
