Applying Energy-Dispersive X-Ray Fluorescence Analysis to Detect Tungsten Inclusions in Nuclear Fuel Rod End Plug TIG Welds by Runqiu Gu, Jianfeng Cheng, Wanchang Lai, Guangxi Wang

“…Then, we constructed an experimental device that uses a CdTe detector with an X-ray tube. The results showed that the relative standard deviation of the net count rate of tungsten K-series characteristic X-rays [W (Kα)] was 1.46%, and the optimum parameters are a tube voltage of 150 kV and current of 0.5 mA. …”

ANAXAM @ TOMCAT 2.0: easy access to cutting-edge tomographic microscopy for industry by Margie P. Olbinado, Vladimir Novak, Christian Gruenzweig, Anne Bonnin, Federica Marone, Christian Matthias Schlepuetz, Goran Lovric, Marco Stampanoni

“…For almost two decades, TOMCAT has been offering its cutting-edge tomographic microscopy capabilities to various industries in need of non-destructive, non-invasive, volumetric, and functional material characterization beyond what is currently possible with conventional X-ray tubes [2]. Five years ago, PSI (together with two Swiss institutes and the Canton of Aargau in Switzerland) has co-founded ANAXAM – a technology transfer center that facilitates the use of advanced analytical methods at large-scale facilities such as the SLS for industrial applications. …”
