X-ray diffraction for single-particle imaging
X-ray free-electron lasers generate intense X-rays with very short pulses and help elucidate the structures of single-biomolecule samples. Single-particle imaging (SPI) is important for revealing biomolecule structures; however, owing to technical challenges, the SPI resolution is not high. For further progress, it is useful to reasonably know the incident X-ray intensity to achieve the desired resolution. This study clarified how the characteristics of X-ray diffraction are determined from the molecular structure to estimate the attainable resolution even for molecules with unknown coordinates.
