AbstractMicrostructural information over an entire sample is important to understand the macroscopic behaviour of materials. X-ray scattering tensor tomography facilitates the investigation of the microstructural organisation in statistically large sample volumes. However, established acquisition protocols based on scanning small-angle X-ray scattering and X-ray grating interferometry inherently require long scan times even with highly brilliant X-ray sources. Recent developments in X-ray diffractive optics towards circular pattern arrays enable fast single-shot acquisition of the sample scattering properties with 2D omnidirectional sensitivity. X-ray scattering tensor tomography with the use of this circular grating array has been demonstrated. We propose here simple yet inherently rapid acquisition protocols for X-ray scattering tensor tomography leveraging on these new optical elements. Results from both simulation and experimental data, supported by a null space analysis, suggest that the proposed acquisition protocols are not only rapid but also corroborate that sufficient information for the accurate volumetric reconstruction of the scattering properties is provided. The proposed acquisition protocols will build the basis for rapid inspection and/or time-resolved tensor tomography of the microstructural organisation over an extended field of view.

The double-focusing high-flux wiggler beamline dedicated to small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) and wide-angle X-ray scattering (WAXS) at ELETTRA has gone into user operation recently. It has been designed specifically for time-resolved studies of non-crystalline and fibrous materials in the submillisecond time scale, and has been optimized for small-angle scattering measurements. An overview of the beamline status and of some representative results, highlighting the performance of the SAXS beamline, are given.

A new beamline for small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) has recently been constructed and is presently under final commissioning at the 2 GeV storage ring ELETTRA. It has been designed specifically for time-resolved studies of non-crystalline and fibrous materials and has been optimized for small-angle scattering measurements. The beamline operates with a SAXS resolution between 10 and about 1400 Å in d spacing (at 8 keV) and has been optimized with respect to high flux at the sample [of the order of 1013 photons s−1 for 8 keV photons (2 GeV, 400 mA)]. Soon it will be possible to perform simultaneously wide-angle diffraction measurements in the d-spacing range 1.2–8 Å (at 8 keV). In order to allow time-resolved (resolution ~1 ms) small-angle scattering measurements, a high-power 57-pole wiggler is used as the beamline source. From its beam, one of three discrete energies, 5.4, 8 and 16 keV, can be selected with a double-crystal monochromator, which contains three pairs of asymmetrically cut plane Si(111) crystals. Downstream, the beam is focused horizontally and vertically by a toroidal mirror. Commissioning tests of this new SAXS beamline showed that all design parameters have been realized.

When a solution of microtubule protein is changed from non-polymerising to polymerising conditions (e.g. by temperature jump or mixing with GTP) there is a series of structural transitions preceding microtubule growth. These have been detected by time-resolved X-ray scattering using synchrotron radiation, and they may be classified into pre-nucleation and nucleation events. X-ray patterns are good indicators for the average behavior of the particles in solution, but they are difficult to interpret unless additional information on their structure is available. We therefore studied the assembly process by electron microscopy under conditions approaching those of the X-ray experiment. There are two difficulties in the EM approach: One is that the particles important for assembly are usually small and not very regular and therefore tend to be overlooked. Secondly EM specimens require low concentrations which favor disassembly of the particles one wants to observe since there is a dynamic equilibrium between polymers and subunits.
