Non-destructing X-ray testing

该项目旨在改善X射线成像，以更低的辐射剂量提供更高的吞吐量和更好的图像质量。它将开发一种X射线成像系统，为检测通常用传统X射线扫描仪看不到的低密度物体提供数量级的更高灵敏度，以及定量图像分析工具，可以将材料从复杂的多材料样品中分离出来并检测单个化学元素。预计这些技术将在机场安全、采矿、农业、制造业质量控制等行业以及从医学到地质学的研究领域带来重大利益。

This project aims to improve imaging with X-rays, providing better image quality with higher throughput at a lower radiation dose. It will develop an X-ray imaging system that provides orders of magnitude greater sensitivity for detecting low-density objects that are often invisible with conventional X-ray scanners, and quantitative image analysis tools that can isolate materials from complex multi-material samples and detect individual chemical elements. Significant benefits from these technologies are expected in industries including airport security, mining, agriculture, manufacturing quality control, and in research fields from medicine to geology.
