It is demonstrated that X-ray beam positions can be extracted from two-dimensional profiles with sub-pixel resolution. Beam-position measurements utilizing a self-designed low-cost two-dimensional detector have been performed at two synchrotron radiation b ...
We present recent results obtained with a novel spectrometer developed within the EU project VOLPE (VOLume PhotoEmission from solids with synchrotron radiation), now operational at ESRF (Beamline ID 16), where we were able to achieve high energy resolution ...
In current biological and biomedical research, quantitative endpoints have become an important factor of success. Classically, such endpoints were investigated with 2D imaging, which is usually destructive and the 3D character of tissue gets lost. 3D imagi ...
The characteristics of synchrotron X-ray sources-quite different from those of conventional sources-are exploited by several new imaging techniques. These techniques expand the capabilities of conventional radiology and find interesting application in spec ...
We report a white beam x-ray waveguide (WG) experiment. A resonant beam coupler x-ray waveguide (RBC) is used simultaneously as a broad bandpass (or multibandpass) monochromator and as a beam compressor. We show that, depending on the geometrical propertie ...
X-rays, the key ingredient of radiology, are still primarily produced with the mechanism discovered by Rontgen over one century ago. A different approach, however, is becoming increasingly important: the use of synchrotron sources based on fast-moving elec ...
This is a tutorial paper on the properties of partially coherent hard x-ray beams and their use in the structural analysis of condensed matter. The role of synchrotron radiation in the generation of coherent x-ray beams is highlighted and the requirements ...
It is important to establish reliable calculational tools to plan and analyse representative microdosimetry experiments in the context of microbeam radiation therapy development. In this paper, an attempt has been made to investigate the suitability of the ...

Single crystals of self-synthesized mordenite−Na were used for incorporation of the cationic dye molecule thionin blue (C12H10N3S+). The planar organic molecule (7.5 × 15 Å), which fits into the large 12-membered ring channel of mordenite, was incorporated ...
X-ray imaging techniques at the best spatial resolution and using synchrotron facilities are put forth as powerful techniques for the search of small life forms in extraterrestrial rocks under quarantine conditions. Absorption and fluorescence X-ray microt ...
