Using µPIXE for quantitative mapping of metal concentration in Arabidopsis thaliana seeds
Seeds are a crucial stage in plant life. They contain the nutrients necessary to initiate the development of a new organism. Seeds also represent an important source of nutrient for human beings. Iron (Fe) and zinc (Zn) deficiencies affect over a billion

Quantitative laser-based x-ray fluorescence and particle-induced x-ray emission
In this work, we demonstrate the feasibility of quantitative laser-based x-ray fluorescence (XRF) combined with particle-induced x-ray emission (PIXE) (called XPIF for x-ray and particle-induced fluorescence) spectroscopy analysis for elemental ...

The Material Basis of 18th‐Century Meissen Porcelain
ABSTRACT In the summer of 1708, the quest for making hard‐paste porcelain from Saxonian clay and other mineral resources succeeded. This was achieved by applying as its essential ingredient newly discovered pure kaolin from Heidelsberg near Aue, western Saxon Ore Mountains.

Longgu (fossilized bone) delivers a natural synergistic network of metal ions, Ca2+, Mg2+, Zn2+, Fe, Cu, and Mn2+ that collectively targets the interconnected pathologies of anxiety, depression, and insomnia. This multi‐ion system operates through coordinated mechanisms including ionostatic balance, cross‐pathway synergy, and systemic integration ...

A Low‐Power Radioisotope XRF Spectrometer for Detection of Light Elements on Planetary Missions
ABSTRACT Current X‐ray spectrometers for in situ geochemical analysis on planetary missions typically rely either on X‐ray tubes, which demand electrical power and add mass and thermal complexity, or on alpha particle X‐ray spectrometers (APXS) that use rare 244 Cm sources, and come with severe concerns on radiation safety and isotope availability.

Archaeometric characterization of Byzantine pottery from Păcuiul lui Soare
Archaeometric investigations using OM (optical microscopy) and micro-PIXE (particle induced X-ray emission) were performed on 45 ceramic shards unearthed in archaeological excavations at Păcuiul lui Soare (southeastern Romania) and dated to the eleventh ...
