Abstract
The centenary of the discovery of X-rays is the occasion to summarize the history of X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) and its development on synchrotron radiation sources, to give the underlying principles a nd to illustrate the possible uses of this spectroscopy by three examp les: a) rile structural characterization of disordered spin transition coordination compounds by EXAFS spectroscopy; b) the ligand binding t o vitamin B-12 by XANES spectroscopy; and c) the chemical analysis of sulfur compounds included in fly-ashes by low-energy XANES spectroscop y.
