Conspectus Developing high-performance battery systems requires the optimization of
every battery component, from electrodes and electrolyte to binder systems. However, the …

X-ray microbeams are an emerging characterization tool with broad implications for science,
ranging from materials structure and dynamics, to geophysics and environmental science, to …

Effective CO2-storage in the shallow solid Earth mainly occurs by the formation of
carbonates. Although the possibility of transport and storage of carbonates to great depth is …

Spectroscopic approaches to plant and soil sciences have provided important information
for several decades. However, many of these approaches suffered from a number of …

Trace elements are chemical elements in minute quantities, which are known to accumulate
in the bone. Cortical and trabecular bones consist of bone structural units (BSUs) such as …

X-rays have been used for non-invasive high-resolution imaging of thick biological
specimens since their discovery in 1895. They are widely used for structural imaging of …

Hard X-ray fluorescence microscopy is well-suited to in-situ investigations of trace metal
distributions within whole, unstained, biological tissue, with sub-parts-per-million detection …

The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) jointly with the Elettra Sincrotrone Trieste
(EST) operates a multipurpose X-ray spectrometry endstation at the X-ray Fluorescence …

We report the development of laboratory based hyperspectral X-ray computed tomography
which allows the internal elemental chemistry of an object to be reconstructed and …

The non-destructive investigation of art and archaeological objects with depth sensitivity is
now possible using 3D micro-XRF spectroscopy. More detailed answers for questions on …
