Journal ArticleDOI

Femtosecond X-ray protein nanocrystallography

Henry N. Chapman, +88 more
- 03 Feb 2011 - 
TL;DR: This work offers a new approach to structure determination of macromolecules that do not yield crystals of sufficient size for studies using conventional radiation sources or are particularly sensitive to radiation damage, by using pulses briefer than the timescale of most damage processes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Single mimivirus particles intercepted and imaged with an X-ray laser

M. Marvin Seibert, +88 more
- 03 Feb 2011 - 
TL;DR: This work shows that high-quality diffraction data can be obtained with a single X-ray pulse from a non-crystalline biological sample, a single mimivirus particle, which was injected into the pulsed beam of a hard-X-ray free-electron laser, the Linac Coherent Light Source.
Journal ArticleDOI

Radioactive 26Al from massive stars in the Galaxy.

TL;DR: High spectral resolution measurements of 26Al emission at 1808.65 keV demonstrate that the 26Al source regions corotate with the Galaxy, supporting its Galaxy-wide origin and determining a present-day equilibrium mass of 2.8 (± 0.8) solar masses of 27Al.
Journal ArticleDOI

The all-sky distribution of 511 keV electron-positron annihilation emission

TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented a map of 511 keV electron-positron annihilation emission, based on data accumulated with the SPI spectrometer aboard ESA's INTEGRAL gamma-ray observatory, that covers approximately 95% of the celestial sphere.
Journal ArticleDOI

Self-terminating diffraction gates femtosecond X-ray nanocrystallography measurements

TL;DR: Measurements indicate that current X-ray free-electron laser technology should enable structural determination from submicrometre protein crystals with atomic resolution, and the shortest apparent pulse lengths occur at the highest resolution.
