In this paper we summarize recent theoretical developments related to the Fourier analysis of the cross-correlation functions. Results of our simulations demonstrate the application of XCCA to two- and three-dimensional (2D and 3D) disordered systems of particles. We show that the structure of a single particle can be recovered using x-ray data collected from a 2D disordered system of identical particles. We also demonstrate that valuable structural information about the local structure of 3D systems, inaccessible from a standard small-angle x-ray scattering experiment, can be resolved using XCCA.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2013-02-23T15:13:30.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "disordered system", "potentials", "standard small-angle x-ray scattering experiment", "angular x-ray cross-correlation analysis", "limitations" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "Hindawi", "journal": "Adv.
