Abstract

Soft X-ray microscopy allows one to study nanoscale heterogeneities in dry and wet environmental science, biological, polymer, and geochemical specimens. Recent advances in instrumentation at the X-1A beamline at the National Synchrotron Light Source at Brookhaven National Laboratory are described. Spectromicroscopy data analysis methods including component mapping and principal component analysis (PCA) are then discussed.
