Abstract

The applications of polarized x-ray absorption spectroscopy (PXAS) for structure determination in inorganic and bioinorganic systems are discussed. PXAS studies of oriented samples add angular detail to the information obtained from x-ray absorption edges and from EXAFS. In some cases, PXAS can be used to determine molecular orientation. In other cases, PXAS can be used to infer the details of electronic structure or of chemical bonding. Some of the potential future applications of PXAS are discussed.
