This textbook provides an elementary yet systematic introduction to x-ray, neutron, and electron scattering for the structural analysis of condensed matter materials. These three methods are treated on the same footing by the same mathematical formalism and in a simplified fashion. Neutron scattering is an entirely quantum mechanical process. However, the way neutron scattering is described here does not require any mastery of quantum mechanics. The emphasis is more on the similarity of the three methods than on the canonical treatment of the respective scattering theories. Furthermore, Math boxes help to overcome technical difficulties in derivations. Each chapter is rounded up with a summary, questions, and a few exercises. The book is suitable for all students and researchers in materials science who want to gain a first overview of the various topics of scattering methods for structural analysis, including modern methods used at synchrotron radiation facilities.

Hartmut Zabel received his doctorate in 1978 from the LM University of Munich in the field of physics on a topic in condensed matter physics. He then spent a year as a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Houston, Texas, and joined the faculty of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in 1979 as Assistant Professor, where he was promoted to Associate Professor in 1983 and Full Professor of Physics in 1986. In 1989 he received a call to the Ruhr University Bochum and held the chair for experimental physics/condensed matter physics from 1989 to 2012. He maintained his connection to the University of Illinois as Adjunct Professor of Physics. In 2001 he received an honorary doctorate from the KTH in Stockholm. After his retirement in 2012, he was first a Senior Professor at the Ruhr University and from 2014 to 2018 Distinguished Guest Professor at the Johannes Gutenberg University in Mainz.
