X-ray laser focuses on tiny objects Nov 16
Researchers at DESY in Germany have confirmed theoretical predictions that an intense x-ray pulse can be used to obtain an image of a single object such as a virus or biological cell. The work was done using the FLASH x-ray free electron laser and opens the door to a new technique for atomic-scale imaging that could give biologists their first glimpses of living cells that are so tiny that they cannot be seen with a microscope (Nature Physics AOP doi: 10.1038/nphys461).
