Abstract
Drs. Joshua Kane and Nikolaus Cordes from Idaho National Lab discuss their work using X-ray Microscopy (XRM) to study nuclear materials. XRM bridges the gap between neutron tomography and higher resolution 3D techniques, such as FIB-SEM tomography. They discuss using XRM to help with their work in increasing the speed at which new nuclear materials can be adopted.
