1 Tecniche di imaging con luce di sincrotrone per lo studio dei geomateriali: dalla radiografia alla tomografia computerizzata a 4 dimensioni Lucia MANCINI Elettra - Sincrotrone Trieste S.C.p.A Basovizza (Trieste) Italy The Synchrotron Light Beamline Beamline The electromagnetic radiation generated by charged particles, typically electrons or positrons, traveling through magnetic fields at speed very close to the speed of light. The frequencies generated can range over the entire electromagnetic spectrum. 1
2 SYRMEP: the imaging Elettra The SYRMEP Elettra Designed and constructed in collaboration with the Trieste section of INFN and the Physics Dept. of Università di Trieste. Devoted to the development and application of hard X-ray imaging techniques. Medical applications - in vitro and ex-vivo experiments bones, tissues, teeth, drugs,... -in-vivo studies small animals mammography Material science studies - microstructural features in a very large range of materials - purpose relationships with physical properties 2

The Pore3D project: why? A sw library specifically designed for X-ray μ-ct images of porous media and multiphase systems, Manipulation of huge datasets with common hw. Different strategies of analysis as a function of the scientific application: Pore3D implements several algorithms for each step of the analysis, having a full control of the parameters of the algorithm and of the intermediate results. On the basis of specific know-how of the SYRMEP collaboration the main aim was to merge many of features implemented in existing software, in some cases customizing it or adding new tools. 15

19 3D quantitative analysis of igneous rocks Formation of a volcanic rock: a complex process with many steps involved, from magma ascent in the conduit to fragmentation and emplacement beyond the crater's rim. Products of explosive eruptions, such as pumices and scoriae, feature an arrangement of crystals and vesicles within a glassy matrix. This represents the status of the magma prior to the fragmentation process; then a great deal of information about the history of the rock formation can be obtained by the study of its morphology and texture.
