SYNAPSE: An international roadmap to large brain imaging

Giorgio Margaritondo

Since 2020, synchrotron radiation facilities in several Asia-Pacific countries have been collaborating in a major project called "SYNAPSE"(Synchrotrons for Neuroscience: an Asia-Pacific Scientific Enterprise). They use x-ray imaging to attack in a coordina ...

Beware of beam damage under reaction conditions: X-ray induced photochemical reduction of supported VOx catalysts during in situ XAS experiments

Oliver Kröcher, Davide Ferri, Anna Zabilska, Olga Safonova

In situ X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) is a powerful technique for the investigation of heterogeneous catalysts and electrocatalysts. The obtained XAS spectra are usually interpreted from the point of view of the investigated chemical processes, there ...

The effect of high relative humidity on a network of water-sensitive particles (couscous) as revealed by in situ X-ray tomography

Gioacchino Viggiani, Edward Carlo Giorgio Andò

Water significantly influences the mechanical behaviour of all granular materials but none as much as hygroscopic amorphous particles. With sufficiently high water content, particles can swell, agglomerate and their mechanical properties can be reduced, ha ...

In-operando dynamic visualization of flow through porous preforms based on X-ray phase contrast imaging

Véronique Michaud, Baris Çaglar, Helena Luisa Teixido Pedarros

Direct visualization is often sought to elucidate flow patterns and validate models to predict the filling kinetics during processes whereby a liquid resin infiltrates a textile porous preform. Here, X-ray phase contrast interferometry is evaluated to imag ...

Core-Valence Attosecond Transient Absorption Spectroscopy of Polyatomic Molecules

Jiri Vanicek, Nikolay Golubev

Tracing ultrafast processes induced by interaction of light with matter is often very challenging. In molecular systems, the initially created electronic coherence becomes damped by the slow nuclear rearrangement on a femtosecond timescale which makes real ...

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

Edward Carlo Giorgio Andò

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 ...

New Reliability Assessment of MEMS Components under Accumulative Testing for Space Applications

Maxime Auchlin

This dissertation proposes a novel accumulative test method for MEMS-based, commercial off-the-shelves inertial measure units (IMUs) from the automotive field. The need for clarification and augmentation of the corpus of knowledge on MEMS reliability for s ...
