The importance of Small Angle X-ray Scattering (SAXS) to the development of modern technology can be appreciated best by considering its wide spread influence on physics, chemistry, materials science, nanotechnology, biological and medical sciences.It is amazing that an analytical technique (SAXS) developed in the early parts of 20th century is still so important and advancing so rapidly. Modern crystallography like protein crystallography among others is no more just structure determination nor is it just fundamental knowledge. Crystal structure analysis is done with application in mind. It provides answer to specific problems, leads to new product and opens new perspectives. The application of SAXS technique leads to abundant opportunities and challenges.With the advent of different processing techniques to produce nano materials, it is necessary to create awareness amongst the scientist regarding scope and potential of SAXS technique to characterize these materials. Moreover the statistical averaging the nano order structure is predominated by SAXS technique over electron microscopy. It is with this view; the proposed short term course has been planned. Lectures on various aspects of advanced SAXS techniques, GISAXS, USAXS and ASAXS have been included in addition to the presentation on processing aspects of nano materials.
