  "term": "X-ray spectroscopy",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "A broad category of analytical techniques that involve the interaction of X-rays with matter to determine elemental composition, chemical state, and electronic structure. These methods typically measure the absorption, emission, or scattering of X-rays. Common applications include X-ray fluorescence (XRF) for elemental analysis and X-ray diffraction (XRD) for structural characterization.",
