Scattering, Reflection Methods and Surface Interactions

'NIST Center for Neutron Research Links'
http://rrdjazz.nist.gov/links.html
This web site at the NIST Neutron Research Center contains links to neutron scattering technical references, relevant societies and organizations, and an extensive list of web sites of other neutron and photon sources.

'ISIS Spallation Neutron Source'
http://www.isis.rl.ac.uk/
ISIS is the U.K. spallation neutron source situated at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory near Oxford. This web site contains links to information on scattering, scientific highlights and annual research reports, conference listings, etc.

'Surface Science Techniques'
http://www.ukesca.org/tech/list.html
This site, sponsored by the ESCA Users group, describes the many different surface science techniques, along with news, databases, conferences, societies, journals, academic and industry sites.

'Small Angle Scattering Worldwide'
http://www.nist.gov/msel/div854/saxs/index.html
This web page, sponsored by NIST, serves as a "Table of Contents" for the organizations that make up the world-wide small-angle scattering community.

'Brewster angle microscopy'

BAM is a recently developed technique for visualizing the morphology of monolayers on optically transparent surfaces. This web site contains sample images and publications.
 

Food Colloids - Emulsions, Gels and Foams

'Food Colloids: Interfaces & Microstructure, IFR Norwich'
http://pc1010.ifrn.bbsrc.ac.uk/fb/colloids/
This group at the Institute for Food Research, Norwich Laboratory, England, studies colloidal structures in food, and surface-active molecules at interfaces, particularly food proteins. Research projects and publications are listed.

'Institute of Food Technologists'
http://www.ift.org/
The IFT is a nonprofit scientific society with 28,000 members working in food science, food technology, and related professions in industry, academia and government. The home page has expanded to include career and employment information, publications, conferences and meetings, and science and policy documents.

'Particle Science & Technology Sites'
