Class Objectives
/Class Outline
Fundamental procedures of the physics experiments are to obtain useful data of the object, and to extract physical quantities by analyzing the data with a reasonable model.  We give a lecture of conventional methods for analysis using X-ray diffraction and X-ray absorption spectroscopy.  X-ray was discovered by Roentgen in 1895, and is electromagnetic wave that has a short wavelength ranging from 1 pm to 10 nm.  Because X-ray enables us to measure the arrangements of atoms or molecules, mesoscopic strain inside the material, and the electronic states of the sample without breaking the sample, we use X-ray to various experiments of physics research.  In this lecture, we practically learn how to extract the information of crystal structure and atomic arrangement from the data of XRD/XAFS by using well-known software.  We understand the fundamentals of data analysis in condensed matter physics via these practical lectures.   

We start this lecture before summer vacation. The fixed date will be announced via Momiji.

Preparation and
Review
Ask questions to the lecturers when you do not understand contents of the lecture and procedures of analysis. Students practically analyze experimental data by using your own PC.  It is important to develop your skill by analyzing data repeatedly via the practical learning.
