This work brings together multiple disciplines including optics, X-ray physics, microfluidics, chemistry and computer science.
The high intensity and broad tunability of synchrotron sources has had enormous impact on the field of X-ray physics.
The lab features test and measurement equipment for electronics, dose calculation, X-ray physics, and image quality.
A cooled intrinsic germanium solid-state X-ray detector is used to measure the spectra of X-rays under a variety of circumstances that illustrate several of the important phenomena of X-ray physics.
The internship program at CHESS has been developed in order to provide local high school students with the opportunity to explore their interests and talents while being exposed to careers involving particle and x-ray physics.
We review here a recently developed method rooted in X-ray physics and continuum micromechanics, which allows for translation of data from computed tomography at micrometre resolution (known as microCT data) into finite element models.
There is close collaboration between the School of Applied and Engineering Physics (A&EP) in the College of Engineering and the Physics Department in research areas such as biophysics and biotechnology, magnetic physics and devices, nano-mechanical systems, x-ray physics, charge-density waves, thin film growth and processing and nanoscale device fabrication.
To this end, I am studying a novel X-ray imaging technique that combines the most recent advances in computational imaging with X-ray physics.
Ignorance of the competition was a blessing in disguise because I had to learn as much as I could about X-ray physics and critically examine the past experiments by NRL.
Currently, analysis of STXM data is typically completed using software packages such as the one created by the X-ray physics group of the Stony Brook University or the aXis2000 software provided by the McMaster University.
After a general overview, emphasis is on two particular modeling strategies; on the one hand, X-ray physics-based analysis of the data collected from computed tomography scanning, optionally coupled to micromechanics-based homogenization schemes, and on the other hand, systems-biology-based modeling of bone regeneration.
