Kavli Affiliate: Claude Canizares | Summary:X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) in the 0.2-2 keV band is a crucial component in multi-wavelength studies of dust mineralogy, size, and shape — parameters that are necessary for interpreting astronomical observations and building physical models across all fields, from cosmology to exoplanets. Despite its importance, many fundamental questions about […]
