Single-projection reconstruction technique for positioning monodisperse spheres in 3D with a divergent x-ray beam

The measurement of the position of single-sized spheres in 3D from a single, divergent, radiographic projection is addressed in the present study with the development of a novel method. Generally speaking, the location of the shadow cast by a single sphere ...

In Vitro Digestion of Tire Particles in a Fish Model (Oncorhynchus mykiss): Solubilization Kinetics of Heavy Metals and Effects of Food Coingestion

Kristin Schirmer, Florian Frédéric Vincent Breider, Benoît Jean Dominique Ferrari, Thibault Béranger Masset

Tire and road wear particles (TRWP) have been shown to represent a large part of anthropogenic particles released into the environment. Nevertheless, the potential ecological risk of TRWP in the different environmental compartments and their potential toxi ...

Helium-induced electronic transitions in photo-excited Ba+–Hen exciplexes

Marcel Drabbels

The possibility for helium-induced electronic transitions in a photo-excited atom is investigated using Ba+ excited to the 6p 2P state as a prototypical example. A diabatization scheme has been designed to obtain the necessary potential energy surfaces and ...

Energy-selective neutron imaging for materials science

Steven Luc X Peetermans

Common neutron imaging techniques study the attenuation of a neutron beam penetrating a sample of interest. The recorded radiograph shows a contrast depending on traversed material and its thickness. Tomography allows separating both and obtaining 3D spati ...

Barium Ions and Helium Nanodroplets: Solvation and Desolvation

Marcel Drabbels, Xiaohang Zhang

The solvation of Ba+ ions created by the photoionization of barium atoms located on the surface of helium nanodroplets has been investigated. The excitation spectra corresponding to the 6p 2P1/2

Synchrotron microangiography studies of angiogenesis in mice with microemulsions and gold nanoparticles

Giorgio Margaritondo, Chao Wang

We present an effective solution for the problem of contrast enhancement in phase-contrast microangiography, with the specific objective of visualising small (< 8 A mu m) vessels in tumor-related microangiogenesis. Different hydrophilic and hydrophobic con ...

X-ray phase radiography and tomography of soft tissue using grating interferometry

Christian David

X-ray phase and absorption radiographs and tomograms of the heart of a rat were taken with an X-ray grating interferometer with monochromatic synchrotron radiation at a photon energy of 17.5 keV. The phase images show largely superior quality with respect ...

Hard X-ray phase imaging and tomography using a grating interferometer

Amela Groso, Christian David, Marco Stampanoni

An interferometric technique for hard X-rays is presented. It is based on two transmission gratings and a phase-stepping technique, and it provides separate radiographs of the phase and absorption profiles of bulk samples. Tomographic reconstruction yields ...

X-ray phase imaging with a grating interferometer

Christian David, Marco Stampanoni

Using a high-efficiency grating interferometer for hard X rays (10-30 keV) and a phase-stepping technique, separate radiographs of the phase and absorption profiles of bulk samples can be obtained from a single set of measurements. Tomographic reconstructi ...
