Coherent Diffractive Imaging (CDI) for
Biological Applications at NSLS-II
May 17-18, 2010
Brookhaven National Laboratory, Bldg. 703, Large Conference Room
Coherent X-ray Imaging (CXI)
is one of the fastest-growing fields in X-ray sciences and the
development of CXI methods has been burgeoning at several facilities
worldwide. However, a significant challenge
the community faces in the
United States is gaining sufficient access
to dedicated CXI beamlines. The situation will be changed with the advent of
NSLS-II which will be one of the brightest
synchrotron radiation sources in the world. Through bringing together some
of the leading researchers in CXI and potential users, this workshop aims
to:
(i) Identify strong
scientific cases in biology-related fields
for the construction of a dedicated CXI beamline at NSLS-II.
(ii) Identify the best CXI
methodologies that can be realized at NSLS-II for pursuing world-class
research.
(iii) Identify critical
beamline parameters, such as the optimum energy range, the required coherent
flux, monochromaticity and the desired spatial resolutions necessary to open
up new avenues of research.
(vi) Identify the
best sample preparation and data analysis procedures to facilitate CXI of
biological samples at NSLS-II.
