The Durham group are experts in x-ray and neutron scattering, having been working on the inter-relation between structure and magnetic and transport properties of thin magnetic films for nearly a decade. Regular users of synchrotron radiation, they have pioneered the use of soft x-ray resonant magnetic scattering in the U.K. for the study of the magnetic structure at interfaces. The group has computer code to solve the inverse problem and determine the interface structure from the scattering in both the hard and soft x-ray regimes. Recent work has been concerned with in-plane surface x-ray diffraction and scattering.
