Advanced manufacturing technologies, led by additive manufacturing, have undergone
significant growth in recent years. These technologies enable engineers to design parts with …

We characterised the displacement of a transmission X-ray tube target parallel to the beam
axis due to thermal effects using interferometry. Displacements of up to 10 μm with a …

X-ray diffraction is ideal for probing the sub-surface state during complex or rapid
thermomechanical loading of crystalline materials. However, challenges arise as the size of …

For X-ray tubes in lab based computed micro-tomography systems, off-focal X rays are those
emitted from the source but not produced at the primary focal spot of the electron beam …

Talbot–Lau interferometry (TLI) provides additional contrast modes for x-ray imaging that are
complementary to conventional absorption radiography. TLI is particularly interesting …

The reduction of motion blur in computed tomography (CT) drives the current research for
multisource CT. Due to their compact nature, the current multisource systems utilize …

Background Emerging multi‐pixel X‐ray source technology enables new designs for X‐ray
imaging systems. The power of multi‐pixel X‐ray sources with a fixed anode is limited by …

When Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen discovered a new type of electromagnetic radiation in 1895,
which is absorbed by matter to different extents depending on material, density and …

Background The spatial resolution of new, photon counting detector (PCD) CT scanners is
limited by the size of the focal spot. Smaller, brighter focal spots would melt the tungsten …

The Monte Carlo particle simulator TOPAS, the multiphysics solver COMSOL®, and several
analytical radiation transport methods were employed to perform an in-depth proof …
