<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN lang=EN-US>Question 29-38<O:P>
</O:P></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN lang=EN-US><SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>Each advance in microscopic
technique has provided <BR>scientists with new perspectives on
the function of living <BR>organisms and the nature of matter
itself. The invention of the <BR>visible-light microscope late
in the sixteenth century introduced a <BR>previously unknown
realm of single-celled plants and animals.<BR> In the twentieth
century, electron microscopes have provided <BR>direct views of
viruses and minuscule surface structures. Now <BR>another type
of microscope, one that utilize x-rays rather than <BR>light or
electrons, offers a different way of examining
tiny <BR>details, it should extend human perception still
farther into the <BR>natural world.<O:P> </O:P></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN lang=EN-US><SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>The dream of building an
x-ray microscope dates to <BR>1895, its development, however,
was virtually halted in the <BR>1940's because the development
of the electron microscope <BR>was progressing rapidly. During
the 1940's electron micro-<BR>scopes routinely achieved resolution
better than that possible <BR>with a visible-light microscope,
while the performance of x-ray <BR>microscopes resisted
improvement. In recent years, however, <BR>interest in x-ray
microscopes has revived, largely because of <BR>advances such
as the development of new sources of x-ray <BR>illumination. As
a result, the brightness available today is <BR>millions of
times that of x-ray tubes, which, for most of the <BR>century,
were the only available sources of soft x-rays.<O:P>
</O:P></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN lang=EN-US><SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>The new x-ray microscopes
considerably improve on the <BR>resolution provided by optical
microscopes. They can also be <BR>used to map the distribution
of certain chemical elements. <BR>Some can form pictures in
extremely short times, others hold <BR>the promise of special
capabilities such as three dimensional <BR>imaging. Unlike
conventional electron microscopy, x-ray <BR>microscopy enables
specimens to be kept in air and in water, <BR>which means that
biological samples can be studied under <BR>conditions similar
to their natural state. The illumination used, <BR>so-called
soft x-rays in the wavelength range of twenty to
forty <BR>angstroms (an angstrom is one ten-billionth of a
meter), is <BR>also sufficiently penetrating to image intact
biological cells in <BR>many cases. Because of the wavelength
of the x-rays used, <BR>soft x-ray microscopes will never match
the highest resolution <BR>possible with electron microscopes.
Rather, their special pro-<BR>perties will make possible
investigations that will complement <BR>those performed with
light- and electron-based instruments.<O:P> <O:P>
