Printing materials and technologies in the 15th−17th century book production: an undervalued research field

We present a systematic non-invasive investigation of a large corpus of early printed books, exploiting multiple techniques. This work is part of a broader project -- Argeia -- aiming to study early printing technologies, their evolution and, potentially, ...

Standardization proposal of soft tissue artefact description for data sharing in human motion measurements

Kamiar Aminian, Arnaud Barré

Soft tissue artefact (STA) represents one of the main obstacles for obtaining accurate and reliable skeletal kinematics from motion capture. Many studies have addressed this issue, yet there is no consensus on the best available bone pose estimator and the ...

Q&A: Why use synchrotron x-ray tomography for multi-scale connectome mapping?

Giorgio Margaritondo

To understand how information flows and is used in the human brain, we must map neural structures at all levels, providing visualizations similar to those of Google Earth for continents, countries, cities, and streets. Unfortunately, the imaging and proces ...

First multi-wavelength campaign on the gamma-ray-loud active galaxy IC 310

Thomas Günther Bretz, Udo Bach

Context. The extragalactic very-high-energy gamma-ray sky is rich in blazars. These are jetted active galactic nuclei that are viewed at a small angle to the line-of-sight. Only a handful of objects viewed at a larger angle are so far known to emit above 1 ...

From closed testaments to books: Virtual X-ray Reading as an alternate digitization technology for fragile documents

Giorgio Margaritondo, Demetri Psaltis, Fauzia Albertin

In recent years, research and technology made considerable progress in increasing the speed and the safety of the entire digitization process of ancient collections. Despite this, imaging ancient, fragile or un-opened documents remains a formidable challen ...

Probing interfacial energetics and charge transfer kinetics in semiconductor nanocomposites: New insights into heterostructured TiO2/BiVO4 photoanodes

Raffaella Buonsanti, Anna Loiudice

Heterostructured nanocomposites offer promise for creating systems exhibiting functional properties that exceed those of the isolated components. For solar energy conversion, such combinations of semiconducting nanomaterials can be used to direct charge tr ...

Polarization Characterization of Soft X-Ray Radiation at FERMI FEL-2

Eugenio Ferrari, David Gauthier

The control of polarization state in soft and hard X- ray light is of crucial interest to probe structural and symmetry properties of matter. Thanks to their Apple-II type undulators, the FERMI-Free Electron Lasers are able to provide elliptical, circular ...

Multiwavelength observations of a VHE gamma-ray flare from PKS 1510-089 in 2015

Thomas Günther Bretz

Context. PKS 1510 089 is one of only a few flat spectrum radio quasars detected in the very-high-energy (VHE, > 100 GeV) gamma-ray band. Aims. We study the broadband spectral and temporal properties of the PKS 1510 089 emission during a high gamma-ray stat ...

Direct protein crystallization on ultrathin membranes for diffraction measurements at X-ray free-electron lasers

Henning Paul-Julius Stahlberg, Christian David

A new era of protein crystallography started when X-ray free-electron lasers (XFELs) came into operation, as these provide an intense source of X-rays that facilitates data collection in the 'iffract-before-destroy' regime. In typical experiments, crystals ...
