Abstract

We started the development of the portable synchrotron MIRRORCLE-CV series, which provides a high quality x-ray beam for high precision non-destructive testing (NDT). Computer simulations for the magnetic field design and electron dynamics reveal that the outer diameter of the synchrotron magnet can be as small as 30 cm. This synchrotron size approaches that of a conventional x-ray tube.

MIRRORCLE-CV The Portable Synchrotron For Precise Non-Destructive Testing And Medical Diagnosis

Journal Article Hasegawa, Daisuke ; Yamada, Hironari - AIP Conference Proceedings

Computer simulations for the magnetic field design and electron dynamics reveal that the outer diameter of the synchrotron magnet can be as small as 30 cm.

Magnified 3D-CT System Using the Portable Synchrotron 'MIRRORCLE-6X'

Journal Article Sasaki, M. ; Yamada, H. ; Synchrotron Light Life Science Center, Ritsumeikan University, 1-1-1 Nojihigasi, Kusatsu, Shiga, 525-8577 ; ... - AIP Conference Proceedings

The portable synchrotron MERRORCLE-6X is a novel x-ray source suitable for hard x-ray imaging. Highly brilliant x-rays are generated by MIRRORCLE-6X in the shape of cone from a source with micron size. We obtained images with high magnification and high resolution by these x-rays, and found that they can be utilized for medical imaging. Recently, we started to perform ideal 3-dimentional computed tomography (3D-CT) based on the Feldkamp algorithm, which is the most popular reconstruction algorithm for a cone beam CT, using a flat panel detector. Therefore, we developed a magnified 3D-CT system of high quality using MIRRORCLE-6X.

High resolution gamma ray tomography scanner for flow measurement and non-destructive testing applications

Journal Article Hampel, U. ; Bieberle, A. ; Hoppe, D. ; ... - Review of Scientific Instruments

We report on the development of a high resolution gamma ray tomography scanner that is operated with a Cs-137 isotopic source at 662 keV gamma photon energy and achieves a spatial image resolution of 0.2 line pairs/mm at 10% modulation transfer function for noncollimated detectors. It is primarily intended for the scientific study of flow regimes and phase fraction distributions in fuel element assemblies, chemical reactors, pipelines, and hydrodynamic machines. Furthermore, it is applicable to nondestructive testing of larger radiologically dense objects. The radiation detector is based on advanced avalanche photodiode technology in conjunction with lutetium yttrium orthosilicate scintillation crystals.more »« less

MIRRORCLE-type tabletop/portable SR sources for advanced applications

Journal Article Yamada, Hironari ; Photon production Laboratory Ltd., Nojihigashi, Kusatsu-City, Shiga 525-8577 - AIP Conference Proceedings

MIRRORCLE is a tabletop/portable synchrotron light source. It generates 10 mW order far infrared, watt order EUV/soft X-ray, and brilliant hard X-rays in 10 to 1000 keV range. MIRRORCLE is also a synchrotron that can generate directly monochromatic X-ray beam. MIRRORCLE is a medical diagnostics system similar to a X-ray tube radiology, but is very different in its fine spatial resolution and coherence of X-ray. A difference in the material density instead of in the atomic number is distinguished by the phase contrast method, due to its highly coherent beam. MIRRORCLE is a non-destructive testing system for more than 10cmmore »« less

Magnified NDI Imaging Using MIRRORCLE-Type Table-Top Synchrotron

Journal Article Hirai, T. ; Sasaki, M. ; Nihira, T. ; ... - AIP Conference Proceedings

We report that the magnified imaging using the portable synchrotron named MIRRORCLE has unique advantages for non-destructive inspection (NDI) of some products. This machine is a high energy x-ray source which can have a micron-sized point source, which is different from the conventional synchrotron, linear accelerator and the x-ray tube. The images produced with micron-sized point source and wide spectrum can display in detail the industrial products containing several materials in detail. The obtained x-ray images characterization is expected to provide a new tool for NDI of industrial products.
