The Göttingen series in x-ray physics is intended as a collection of research monographs in x-ray science, carried out at the Institute for X-ray Physics at the Georg-August-Universität in Göttingen, and in the framework of its related research networks and collaborations. It covers topics ranging from x-ray microscopy, nano-focusing, wave propagation, image reconstruction, tomography, short x-ray pulses to applications of nanoscale x- ray imaging and biomolecular structure analysis. In most but not all cases, the contributions are based on Ph.D. dissertations. The individual monographs should be enhanced by putting them in the context of related work, often based on a common long term research strategy, and f unded by the same research networks. We hope that the series will also help to enhance the visibility of the research carried out here and help others in the field to advance similar projects.
