Automated particle analysis of D.B. Cooper's tie

Journal of Forensic Sciences, Volume 71, Issue 5, Page 2439-2447, September 2026.
Abstract Automated particle analysis (APA) using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy‐dispersive x‐ray spectrometry (EDS) is a well‐known method in forensics, especially as it is applied to gunshot residue analysis. Here we describe the analysis of particles lifted from D.B. Cooper's tie, which was left on the hijacked plane in 1971.
