A thickness metrology method based on X‐ray phase contrast imaging is proposed. By precisely retrieving the phase shift of X‐rays passing through the sample, high‐precision arbitrary thickness profile measurement can be achieved with a single X‐ray projection. A measurement case of a microlens array is presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of this

Hybrid Diffuse Reflectance Spectroscopy (HDRS), now ISO 23698, demonstrated bioequivalence to gold‐standard SPF, UVA‐PF, and CW methods, achieving similar accuracy with improved variability after training. This new non‐erythemal approach enables safe non‐invasive sunscreen performance assessment on human skin, expanding possibilities for evaluating ...

A dispersive X‐ray absorption spectroscopy instrument has been developed and implemented at the Advanced Photon Source's Advanced Spectroscopy Beamline. The instrument uses a convexly bent Bragg‐crystal analyzer to disperse a polychromatic X‐ray beam and independent Kirkpatrick–Baez mirrors for focusing, thereby providing a simple and flexible method ...

Engineered Hydrogels for Organoid Models of Human Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is characterized by lipid accumulation and extracellular matrix stiffening. An in vitro NAFLD model is developed using engineered hydrogels (G′ ≈ 1–6 kPa) and iPSC‐derived hepatic organoids. It is demonstrated that higher stiffness can increase lipid droplet accumulation, fibrosis, and metabolic dysregulation ...

Synthetic fibres and steel fibres in concrete with regard to bond strength and toughness [PDF]
The ability of fibre reinforced concrete composites to absorb energy has long been recognised as one of the most important benefits of the incorporation of fibres into plain concrete” (Golpalaratham and Gettu 1995).

ABSTRACT The Red Fox (Vulpes vulpes) can be hunted as a game species. It may also be listed as a “species likely to cause damage” (ESOD – the acronym in French), for public health reasons among others. Conversely, benefits linked to the presence of foxes are also put forward, such as the predation of rodents carrying zoonotic agents.

Operando X‐Ray Tomoscopy of Laser Beam Welding
An advanced way of laser beam guidance in the welding of die‐cast aluminum by beam modulation is investigated in 3D over time using X‐ray tomoscopy. New insights into the interaction of the keyhole with the forming porosity are gained. These dynamic changes are quantified with a temporal resolution of 10 ms and a reduction in porosity and surface ...

A second near‐infrared (NIR) window microscope with circularly polarized optics noninvasively visualizes the internal state of hair and quantitatively evaluates hair damage caused by bleaching, permanent waveing, LiBr treatment, and heating. This method has high potential as a standard evaluation tool in the hair care field.

The assessment of neural tissue in the enteric nervous system by X‐ray phase‐contrast micro‐computed tomography (PC‐µCT) showed that the ratio of neural tissue volume/total tissue volume was higher in controls than in patients with enteric neuropathy (P = 0.013). The patient with the longest disease duration had the lowest ratio.

We present a multimodal anatomy of the male genitalia of the bullet ant, Paraponera clavata. Using this as a model system, we expand and refine on the 5‐category system of homology classification proposed by Meneganzin et al. (2024) and we present evidence supporting the penis‐coxopod theory of male genitalic homology in male insects. Abstract The male
