From the first initiatives [[1]] to the most recent developments of synchrotron-based techniques for the study of cultural and natural heritage materials, many synchrotron facilities have developed their own scientific programs in this field [[2]]. Ender to hard X-rays 3-23 keVMacro: 250 × 200 µm Micro: 5 to 10 µmXRF, XRD, DANES, DAFS, EXAFS, XANES imaging or punctual measurementsU X-ray tomography Synchrotron X-ray micro- and nanotomography allow the study of the detailed 3D morphology of bulk samples, with a spatial resolution that can go down to the sub-micrometer range for "standard" parallel-beam projection microtomography setups, and down to less than 50 nm in nano-tomography methods using more recent and more complex schemes, such as hard X-ray transmission X-ray microscopy (TXM). D micro spectral imaging with XRF, XANES, and XRD 3D computed tomography with absorption and phase contrast (in the future)T. [Extracted from the article]
