The discovery of superconductivity in layered iron based compounds at critical temperatures of up to some 56 K has attracted much attention by the solid state physics community. Scattering methods, in particular neutron scattering and resonant x-ray scattering, prove crucial to access microscopic information about these new classes of compounds. We have employed inelastic neutron scattering to study the phonon density of states as well as full phonon dispersion relations [1]. The proximity to magnetism suggests that magnetic order and spin fluctuations play an important role in these compounds [2]. We will review our experimental findings on ordering phenomena and spin- and lattice excitations and discuss their possible relevance for superconductivity.
