Abstract: Synchrotron-radiation computed tomography has been applied in many research fields. Here, PITRE (Phase-sensitive X-ray Image processing and Tomography REconstruction) and PITRE_BM (PITRE Batch Manager) are presented. PITRE supports phase retrieval for propagation-based phase-contrast imaging/tomography (PPCI/PPCT), extracts apparent absorption, refractive and scattering information of diffraction enhanced imaging (DEI), and allows parallel-beam tomography reconstruction for conventional absorption CT data and for PPCT phase retrieved and DEI-CT extracted information. PITRE_BM is a batch processing manager for PITRE: it executes a series of tasks, created via PITRE, without manual intervention. Both PITRE and PITRE_BM are coded in Interactive Data Language (IDL), and have a user-friendly graphical user interface. They are freeware and can run on Microsoft Windows systems via IDL Virtual Machine, which can be downloaded for free and does not require a license. The data-processing principle and some examples of application will be presented.

TL;DR: In this paper, the remaining porosities in Co-Cr-Mo alloy parts prepared by selective laser melting were presented in relation to the laser processing parameters, and accurate 3D images of defects inside SLM fabricated Co-cr-Mo samples were provided by synchrotron radiation micro-CT imaging of 300μm thick slices cut from a 10mm cube.

TL;DR: This specimen provides an opportunity to document pristine feathers in direct association with a putative juvenile coelurosaur, preserving fine morphological details, including the spatial arrangement of follicles and feathers on the body, and micrometer-scale features of the plumage.

X-Ray Interactions: Photoabsorption, Scattering, Transmission, and Reflection at E = 50-30,000 eV, Z = 1-92
TL;DR: In this article, the atomic scattering factors for all angles of coherent scattering and at the higher photon energies are obtained from these tabulated forward-scattering values by adding a simple angle-dependent form-factor correction.

Simultaneous phase and amplitude extraction from a single defocused image of a homogeneous object
TL;DR: This work demonstrates simultaneous phase and amplitude extraction from a single defocused image of a homogeneous object and solves the twin‐image problem of in‐line holography and is capable of analysing data obtained using X‐ray microscope, electron microscopy, neutron microscopy or visible‐light microscopy.

Phase-contrast imaging using polychromatic hard X-rays
TL;DR: In this paper, a simplified scheme for phase-contrast imaging based on an X-ray source having high spatial (but essentially no chromatic) coherence is presented. But the method is not suitable for large areas of irradiation, and it can operate with a lower absorbed dose than traditional Xray imaging techniques, and should find broad application in clinical, biological and industrial settings.
