Imaging single cells in a beam of live cyanobacteria with an X-ray laser

This entry contains ten diffraction patterns, and reconstructions images, ofindividual living Cyanobium gracile cells, imaged using 517 eV X-rays from theLCLS XFEL. The Hawk software package was used for phasing. TheUppsala aerosol injector was used for sample injection, assuring very low noiselevels. The cells come from various stages of the cell cycle, and were imaged inrandom orientations.

本条目包含由LCLS XFEL产生的517 eV X射线成像的十个个体细弱蓝藻（Cyanobium gracile）细胞衍射图谱及其重建图像。相位校正采用了Hawk软件包，样品注入则借助乌普萨拉气溶胶注入器完成，确保了极低的噪声水平。这些细胞来源于细胞周期的不同阶段，并以随机方向进行成像。
