Determining elemental phosphorus contents in bloomery iron standards as a fun...
The proposed measurements aim to determine the behaviour of the structural parameters of iron-phosphorus alloys as a function of P-content, in order to have a reliable... -
Estimating carbon contents in historical European blades through neutron diff...
Previous studies have attempted to correlate the results of metallography with neutron diffraction studies on the very high-carbon steels used in Oriental blades. Japanese sword... -
Diffraction 'artifacts' due to shape, size and thickness variation in copper,...
In relation to TOF flight neutrondiffraction experiments conducted on Renaissance sculpture, we are proposing a systematic study of controlled shape, size and thickness effects... -
Characterization of the phase map of two ancient Japanese blades through neut...
Historical metallurgy is one of the most interesting topics of archaeometry but, in order to have a good level of characterization of artefacts by traditional analytical... -
Quantitative determination of the Bragg edge transmission analysis of 9 steel...
The Bragg edge transmission (BET) analysis is a technique exploiting the presence, position and shape of the edges which form in time of flight transmitted neutron beams. This... -
Tests on superconductive NbN-based neutron counters for spallation neutron so...
R&D on neutron detectors not based on 3He is important for both reactors and spallation ysources. Superconductive films were already succesfully tested in the sixties for... -
Non destructive characterization of tools, ingots and artefacts retrieved in ...
An archeological excavation taken in the Querciola area inside the municipality of Sesto Fiorentino (Firenze - Italy) brought to the discovery of a copper age metallurgical... -
Characterization of the texture properties of Euro coins as a function of min...
This work intends to see if a diffraction technique is able to distinguish between coins minted in different places. All the physical properties of euro coins were restricted by... -
Analysis of historical iron weapons and objects from Equatorial Africa
The main purpose of the experiment is to analyze by means of neutron diffraction structural properties and composition of different iron weapons and blades coming from... -
