EMBO Practical Course on

Solution Scattering from Biological Macromolecules

As an introductory material for solution X-ray scattering it is recommended to read a chapter from the HERCULES training course book P. Vachette & D.I. Svergun (2000) Small-angle X-ray scattering by solutions of biological macromolecules from "Structure and Dynamics of Biomolecules" edited by E. Fanchon, G. Geissler, J.-L. Hodeau, J.-R. Regnard and P.A. Timmins. New York: Oxford University Press, 199-237 (by permission of Oxford University Press). Please note that the PDF-file is large (26 Mb) – be patient during download.

A good introduction to neutron scattering from biological macromolecules with many useful links.
