Overview of Research Group, Goals and Purposes:
Small-Angle Scattering Research Group consists of the members who analyze the structures of the bio and soft matters with small-angle X-ray scattering and the members exchange various information on the bio and soft matters.
In order to clarify structure-property correlations in the hierarchical structures of polymeric materials, soft matter and living organisms, scattering experiments have been carried out at SPring-8 in a wide wavenumber range from wide-angle scattering to ultra-small angle scattering, and important knowledge has been obtained for the development of the relevant academic and industrial fields. However, for the elucidation of structure-property correlations through more detailed elucidation of the hierarchical structure, it is necessary to carry out structural analysis of the multi-component system of the system. For this reason, we aim to facilitate the use of anomalous X-ray scattering methods in the future in order to clearly analyse the multi-component structure. Continuing from the previous year, we also aim to elucidate the dynamic hierarchical structure by XPCS experimetns.
