Continuous Diffraction of Molecules and Disordered Molecular Crystals [PDF]
The diffraction pattern of a single non-periodic compact object, such as a molecule, is continuous and is proportional to the square modulus of the Fourier transform of that object. When arrayed in a crystal, the coherent sum of the continuous diffracted

Serial femtosecond crystallography approaches to understanding catalysis in iron enzymes
Enzymes with iron-containing active sites play crucial roles in catalysing a myriad of oxidative reactions essential to aerobic life. Defining the three-dimensional structures of iron enzymes in resting, oxy-bound intermediate and substrate-bound states is particularly challenging, not least because of the extreme susceptibility of the Fe(III) and Fe ...
