VIDEO - Webinar series: Let's Dive into the Atoms! - Beyond the E0 state of nitrogenase: Spectroscopic studies of Intermediates in biological dinitrogen reduction, with Serena DeBeer

The conversion of dinitrogen to ammonia is a challenging, energy intensive process, which is enabled biologically by the nitrogenase family of enzymes. The Mo-dependent nitrogenases contain two cofactors, the 8Fe-8S P-cluster and the Mo-7Fe-9S-C iron-molybdenum cofactor, known as “FeMoco”, which is…

VIDEO - Webinar series: Let's Dive into the Atoms! - How to exploit chemical sensitivity in X-ray spectroscopy, with Pieter Glatzel

Matter absorbs and scatters X-rays. Spectral analysis of the X-rays reveals a wealth of information about the electronic structure of the X-ray absorbing element (the analyte). Pieter Glatzel explains the mechanisms that lead to the chemical sensitivity and show how they influence the spectral…
