While most of the power for operating a conventional X-ray tube source goes into unwanted heat, a synchrotron, which accelerates electrons to nearly the speed of light, proved to be extremely ...

X-ray micro- and nano-tomography can provide clues on the processes that link the neurons in the gut and brain and may trigger Alzheimer’s.

Today, detection systems made by large arrays of sensors are used to markedly improve the throughput in laboratory- or synchrotron-based experiments, employing micro- or nano-focused excitation X ray ...
