Diffractive triangulation of radiative point sources
We describe a general method to determine the location of a point source of waves relative to a twodimensional
single-crystalline active pixel detector. Based on the inherent structural sensitivity of
crystalline sensor materials, characteristic detector diffraction patterns can be used to triangulate the
location of a wave emitter. The principle described here can be applied to various types of waves,
provided that the detector elements are suitably structured. As a prototypical practical application of
the general detection principle, a digital hybrid pixel detector is used to localize a source of electrons
for Kikuchi diffraction pattern measurements in the scanning electron microscope. This approach
provides a promising alternative method to calibrate Kikuchi patterns for accurate measurements of
microstructural crystal orientations, strains, and phase distributions
Testing the proposed link between cosmic rays and cloud cover
A decrease in the globally averaged low level cloud cover, deduced from the
ISCCP infra red data, as the cosmic ray intensity decreased during the solar
cycle 22 was observed by two groups. The groups went on to hypothesise that the
decrease in ionization due to cosmic rays causes the decrease in cloud cover,
thereby explaining a large part of the presently observed global warming. We
have examined this hypothesis to look for evidence to corroborate it. None has
been found and so our conclusions are to doubt it. From the absence of
corroborative evidence, we estimate that less than 23%, at the 95% confidence
level, of the 11-year cycle change in the globally averaged cloud cover
observed in solar cycle 22 is due to the change in the rate of ionization from
the solar modulation of cosmic rays

Phenomenology of iron-assisted ion beam pattern formation on Si(001)
Pattern formation on Si(001) through 2 keV Kr+ ion beam erosion of Si(001) at an incident angle of # = 30° and in the presence of sputter codeposition or co-evaporation of Fe is investigated by using in situ scanning tunneling microscopy, ex situ atomic force microscopy and electron microscopy. The phenomenology of pattern formation is presented, and experiments are conducted to rule out or determine the processes of relevance in ion beam pattern formation on Si(001) with impurities. Special attention is given to the determination of morphological phase boundaries and their origin. Height fluctuations, local flux variations, induced chemical inhomogeneities, silicide formation and ensuing composition-dependent sputtering are found to be of relevance for pattern formation
