Abstract

X-ray absorption spectroscopy can be applied to the study of liquid matter yielding quantitative structural information on the short-range order. Recent experimental advances and a new single-energy detection technique suitable for monitoring phase transition and supercooling phenomena are described. Examples of the change in absorption at the melting of Ge and Ag are presented. The general theoretical framework for the interpretation of the spectra is reviewed.
