New results on quantum correlated x-rays
January 6, 2024: We are excited about our latest paper from our quantum correlated x-ray collaboration with Argonne National Laboratory, the Nevada National Security Sites, SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, and Bar-Ilan University. Congratulations to BYU PhD students Daniel Hodge and Taylor Buckway and undergraduates Abi Mae Hardy and Eric Christie for all their work on it: "Confirming X-ray parametric down conversion by time–energy correlation" in Results in Physics.
2023 Computational X-ray Imaging Group Christmas Party
December 2023: So excited to have most of the research group at the Sandberg house for our annual Christmas party!
Paper on HHG callibration in SPIE Proceedings
October 13, 2023: Congratulations to PhD student Taylor Buckway, undergraduate research assistant Aaron Redd, and team for our recent publication in SPIE Proceedings: "Addressing calibration of high-harmonic generation sources used for studying magnetism." Work was performed with our BYU high harmonic generation system built by Taylor and also extreme ultraviolet spectroscopy at the Advanced Light Source.
New publication on Laue diffraction microscopy in Journal of Synchrotron Radiation
May 30, 2023: We are excited about our recent publication from the Journal of Synchrotron Radiation entitled "Mapping nanocrystal orientations via scanning Lue diffraction microscopy for multi-peak Bragg coherent diffraction imaging," by Y. Zhang et al. It features research contributions from gradaute student second author Nick Porter and undergraduate research assistants Josh Miller and Landon Schnebly together with our collaborators from Argonne National Laboratory, Carnegie Mellon University, and DESY. Check it out here (link).
