2 Investigation of micromechanical cantilever sensors with microfocus grazing incidence small- angle x-ray scatteringMarkus Wolkenhauer, Gina-Gabriela Bumbu, and Yajun Cheng Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research, Ackermannweg 10, D-55128 Mainz, Germany Stephan V. Roth HASYLAB at DESY, Notkestr. 85, D-22603 Hamburg, Germany Jochen S. Gutmann Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research, Ackermannweg 10, D-55128 Mainz, Germany and Institute for Physical Chemistry, Johannes Gutenberg University, Jakob-Welder-Weg 10, D-55099 Mainz, GermanyMarkus Wolkenhauer Gina-Gabriela Bumbu Yajun Cheng Stephan V. Roth Jochen S. Gutmann GISAXS from Polymer Brushes on Micromechanical Cantilevers

3 Micro-SAXS of Feather Microstructure: What Makes Blue Jays Blue? New Metamaterials Prum, R. O., Torres, R. H., Williamson, S., and Dyck, J. 1998. Coherent light scattering by blue bird feather barbs. Nature 396: 28-29.

4 Chromatin Structure: A Grand Challenge for Structural Biology

5 X-ray Photon Correlation Spectroscopy for the Dynamics of Soft Matter Pop quiz: Which is the liquid? Which is the glass?

6 X-ray Photon Correlation Spectroscopy for the Dynamics of Soft Matter (cont.)

7 Higher-Order Correlation Functions Under coherent illumination, x-rays give I(Q,t) not

8 Higher-Order Correlation Functions (cont.) For non-Gaussian processes, such as those showing intermittent dynamics, as expected near a glass transition, there’s extra information in higher order correlation functions e.g. G 4 =
