Description

Fluctuation X-ray scattering (FXS) offers a complementary approach to imaging of nano- and bioparticles at X-ray free-electron lasers (XFELs) by extracting structural information from statistical moments of large ensembles of measured scattering patterns.
This poster reviews basic concepts behind FXS from the perspective of rotational invariants. Further more, we employed our software suite xFrame [1] to compute 3D virus reconstructions from several experimental datasets and present the results [2].
