Crystal defects play a large role in how materials respond to their surroundings, yet there are many uncertainties in how extended defects form, move, and interact deep beneath a materials surface. A newly developed imaging diagnostic, dark-field X-ray microscopy (DFXM) can now visualize the behavior of line defects, known as dislocations, in materials under varying conditions. DFXM images visualize dislocations by imaging the very subtle long-range distortions in the materials crystal lattice, which produce a characteristic adjoined pair of bright and dark regions. Full analysis of how these dislocations evolve can be used to refine material models, however, it requires quantitative characterization of the statistics of their shape, position and motion. In this paper, we present a semi-automated approach to effectively isolate, track, and quantify the behavior of dislocations as composite objects. This analysis drives the statistical characterization of the defects, to include dislocation velocity and orientation in the crystal, for example, and is demonstrated on DFXM images measuring the evolution of defects at 98$%$ of the melting temperature for single-crystal aluminum, collected at the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility.

X-ray free-electron lasers (XFELs) are the only sources currently able to produce bright few-fs pulses with tunable photon energies from 100 eV to more than 10 keV. Due to the stochastic SASE operating principles and other technical issues the output
pulses are subject to large fluctuations, making it necessary to characterize the x-ray pulses on every shot for data sorting purposes. We present a technique that applies machine learning tools to predict x-ray pulse properties using simple electron beam and x-ray parameters as input. Using this technique at the Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS), we report mean errors below 0.3 eV for the prediction of the photon energy at 530 eV and below 1.6 fs for the prediction of the delay between two x-ray pulses. We also demonstrate spectral shape prediction with a mean agreement of 97%. This approach could potentially be used at the next generation of high-repetition-rate XFELs to provide accurate knowledge of complex x-ray pulses at the full repetition rate.
X-ray dark-field imaging enables a spatially-resolved visualization of small-angle X-ray scattering. Using phantom measurements, we demonstrate that a materials effective dark-field signal may be reduced by modification of the visibility spectrum by
other dark-field-active objects in the beam. This is the dark-field equivalent of conventional beam-hardening, and is distinct from related, known effects, where the dark-field signal is modified by attenuation or phase shifts. We present a theoretical model for this group of effects and verify it by comparison to the measurements. These findings have significant implications for the interpretation of dark-field signal strength in polychromatic measurements.
It is shown that prize changes of the US dollar - German Mark exchange rates upon different delay times can be regarded as a stochastic Marcovian process. Furthermore we show that from the empirical data the Kramers-Moyal coefficients can be estimate
d. Finally, we present an explicite Fokker-Planck equation which models very precisely the empirical probabilitiy distributions.
Magnetic force microscopy (MFM) measurements generally provide phase images which represent the signature of domain structures on the surface of nanomaterials. To quantitatively determine magnetic stray fields based on an MFM image requires calibrate
d properties of the magnetic tip. In this work, an approach is presented for calibrating a magnetic tip using a Co/Pt multilayered film as a reference sample which shows stable well-known magnetic properties and well-defined perpendicular band domains. The approach is based on a regularized deconvolution process in Fourier domain with a Wiener filter and the L-curve method for determining a suitable regularization parameter to get a physically reasonable result. The calibrated tip is applied for a traceable quantitative determination of the stray fields of a test sample which has a patial frequency spectrum covered by that of the reference sample. According to the Guide to the expression of uncertainty in measurement, uncertainties of the processing algorithm are estimated considering the fact that the regularization influences significantly the quantitative analysis. We discuss relevant uncertainty components and their propagations between real domain and Fourier domain for both, the tip calibration procedure and the stray field calculation, and propose an uncertainty evaluation procedure for quantitative magnetic force microscopy.
Deviations from Brownian motion leading to anomalous diffusion are ubiquitously found in transport dynamics, playing a crucial role in phenomena from quantum physics to life sciences. The detection and characterization of anomalous diffusion from the
measurement of an individual trajectory are challenging tasks, which traditionally rely on calculating the mean squared displacement of the trajectory. However, this approach breaks down for cases of important practical interest, e.g., short or noisy trajectories, ensembles of heterogeneous trajectories, or non-ergodic processes. Recently, several new approaches have been proposed, mostly building on the ongoing machine-learning revolution. Aiming to perform an objective comparison of methods, we gathered the community and organized an open competition, the Anomalous Diffusion challenge (AnDi). Participating teams independently applied their own algorithms to a commonly-defined dataset including diverse conditions. Although no single method performed best across all scenarios, the results revealed clear differences between the various approaches, providing practical advice for users and a benchmark for developers.
