Owing to the increased availability of synchrotron sources,surface X-ray scattering is a rapidly expanding techniquewith important applications to surface structures andsurface phase transitions, roughening of surfaces andinterfaces, and the structure of liquid surfaces, includingpolymers, liquid crystals, and organic films. Surfacestudies with neutrons, on the other hand provide importantinformation on liquid andmagnetic films. The contributionsto this volume, written by active researchers in the field,provide an up-to-date overview of the highly sophisticatedtechniques and their applications.
