This text provides a basic understanding of how these techniques enable the structure and dynamics of materials to be studied at the atomic and molecular level. Although mathematics cannot be avoided in a theoretical discussion, the aim has been to write a book that most scientists will still findapproachable. To this end, the first two chapters are devoted to providing a tutorial background in the mathematics 606 $aNeutrons$xScattering 606 $aX-rays$xScattering 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aNeutrons$xScattering. 615 0$aX-rays$xScattering. 676 $a539.7213 700 $aSivia$b D.
