XTOP 2016
Atomicus participated in the 13th Biennial Conference on High-Resolution X-Ray Diffraction and Imaging (XTOP), which took place in Brno, Czech Republic from September 4 to 8.
XTOP brought together scientists from the fields of X-ray diffractometry, reflectometry, standing waves, coherent and conventional X-ray diffraction imaging and topography, X-ray absorption, and phase contrast imaging. It is one of the most important scientific conferences concerning methods and instrumentation in laboratory and synchrotron-based high-resolution X-ray diffraction methods, phase contrast imaging, and micro-tomography.
