T1 - Three-dimensional imaging of magnetic domains N2 - Magnetic domains have been the subject of much scientific investigation since their theoretical existence was first postulated by P.-E. Weiss over a century ago. Up to now, the three-dimensional (3D) domain structure of bulk magnets has never been observed owing to the lack of appropriate experimental methods. Domain analysis in bulk matter thus remains one of the most challenging tasks in research on magnetic materials. All current domain observation methods are limited to studying surface domains or thin magnetic films. As the properties of magnetic materials are strongly affected by their domain structure, the development of a technique capable of investigating the shape, size and distribution of individual domains in three dimensions is of great importance. Here, we show that the novel technique of Talbot-Lau neutron tomography with inverted geometry enables direct imaging of the 3D network of magnetic domains within the bulk of FeSi crystals.

T1 - Experimental and numerical investigations on the effect of fracture geometry and fracture aperture distribution on flow and solute transport in natural fractures N2 - The impact of fracture geometry and aperture distribution on fluid movement and on non-reactive solute transport was investigated experimentally and numerically in single fractures. For this purpose a hydrothermally altered and an unaltered granite drill core with axial fractures were investigated. Using three injection and three extraction locations at top and bottom of the fractured cores, different dipole flow fields were examined. The conservative tracer (Amino-G) breakthrough curves were measured using fluorescence spectroscopy. Based on 3-D digital data obtained by micro-computed tomography 2.5-D numerical models were generated for both fractures by mapping the measured aperture distributions to the 2-D fracture geometries (x-y plane). Fluid flow and tracer transport were simulated using COMSOL Multiphysics®. By means of numerical simulations and tomographic imaging experimentally observed breakthrough curves can be understood and qualitatively reproduced. The experiments and simulations suggest that fluid flow in the altered fracture is governed by the 2-D fracture geometry in the x-y plane, while fluid flow in the unaltered fracture seems to be controlled by the aperture distribution. Moreover, we demonstrate that in our case simplified parallel-plate models fail to describe the experimental findings and that pronounced tailings can be attributed to complex internal heterogeneities. The results presented, implicate the necessity to incorporate complex domain geometries governing fluid flow and mass transport into transport modeling.

We find a significant improvement in the overall Signal to background ratio of up to 100 and a suppression of more than a factor 3⋅10⁵ for undesirable Bragg reflections generated by the X-ray “transparent” windows of the sample environment. The background reduction and the removal of the high intensity signals from the windows, which limit the detector’s dynamic range, enable significantly higher sensitivity in experiments within sample environments such as vacuum chambers and gas- or liquid-cells. Details of the additively manufactured steel collimator geometry, alignment strategies using X-ray fluorescence, and data analysis are also briefly discussed. The flexibility and affordability of 3D prints enable designs optimized for specific detectors and sample environments, without compromising the degrees of freedom of the diffractometer.

A1 - Resch-Genger, Ute T1 - Multimodal cleavable reporters for quantifying carboxy and amino groups on organic and inorganic nanoparticles N2 - Organic and inorganic nanoparticles (NPs) are increasingly used as drug carriers, fluorescent sensors, and multimodal labels in the life and material sciences. These applications require knowledge of the chemical nature, total number of surface groups, and the number of groups accessible for subsequent coupling of e.g., antifouling ligands, targeting bioligands, or sensor molecules. To establish the concept of catch-and-release assays, cleavable probes were rationally designed from a quantitatively cleavable disulfide moiety and the optically detectable reporter 2-thiopyridone (2-TP). For quantifying surface groups on nanomaterials, first, a set of monodisperse carboxy-and amino-functionalized, 100 nm-sized polymer and silica NPs with different surface group densities was synthesized. Subsequently, the accessible functional groups (FGs) were quantified via optical spectroscopy of the cleaved off reporter after its release in solution. Method validation was done with inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES) utilizing the sulfur atom of the cleavable probe. This comparison underlined the reliability and versatility of our probes, which can be used for surface group quantification on all types of transparent, scattering, absorbing and/or fluorescent particles. The correlation between the total and accessible number of FGs quantified by conductometric titration, qNMR, and with our cleavable probes, together with the comparison to results of conjugation studies with differently sized biomolecules reveal the potential of catch-and-release reporters for surface analysis. Our findings also underline the importance of quantifying particularly the accessible amount of FGs for many applications of NPs in the life sciences.

T1 - Microstrain distributions in polycrystalline thin films measured by X-ray microdiffraction N2 - Microstrain distributions were acquired in functional thin films by high-resolution X-ray microdiffraction measurements, using polycrystalline CuInSe2 thin films as a model system. This technique not only provides spatial resolutions at the submicrometre scale but also allows for analysis of thin films buried within a complete solar-cell stack. The microstrain values within individual CuInSe2 grains were determined to be of the order of 10^-4. These values confirmed corresponding microstrain distribution maps obtained on the same CuInSe2 layer by electron backscatter diffraction and Raman microspectroscopy.

T1 - Three-dimensional imaging of magnetic domains with neutron grating interferometry N2 - This paper gives a brief overview on3D imaging of magnetic domains with shearing grating neutron tomography. We investigated the three-dimensional distribution of magnetic domain walls in the bulk of a wedge-shaped FeSi single crystal. The width of the magnetic domains wasanalyzed at different locations within the crystal. Magnetic domains close to the tip of the wedge are much smaller than in the bulk. Furthermore, the three-dimensional shape of individual domains wasinvestigated. We discuss prospects and limitations of the applied measurement technique.

T1 - SY-XRF study of Hans Baldung Grien silverpoint drawings and the silver stylus from the 'Karlsruhe sketchbook' N2 - We performed spatially resolved synchrotron-induced x-ray fluorescence analyses (SY-XRF) of five silverpoint drawings from the famous `Karlsruhe sketchbook´ and a silverpoint, which is assumed to be an original one used by the Renaissance artist Hans Baldung Grien (1484-1545) himself. The silverpoint, one out of a very small number of ancient styli conserved nowadays, is fixed on the so-called `Karlsruhe sketchbook´. Measurements were executed at the FLUO-TOPO beamline at the electron storage ring ANKA. It has been shown, that SY-XRF at this beamline is nondestructive and sensitive enough for the analysis of minor and major elements in the silver strokes. This study provides new insights into this graphical technique and ancient drawing instruments: results are that three drawings have been created with a common type of silverpoint containing about (10.4 ± 0.7) wt% of Cu. In all the cases, Hg at a 10% level by weight was identified in the strokes. Presence of Hg is not due to the original silver alloy, but is a result of a general alteration phenomenon of silverpoint drawings. This fact is confirmed by the analysis of the original silverpoint, which contains only small traces of Hg. The result for the copper content of the silverpoint (10.4 ± 1.7) wt% is in good agreement with that of these three drawings. It is supposable that the silverpoint found attached today served for the creation of the corresponding drawings. Moreover, the graphical technique of Baldung is found to be continual over three decades. Only one very late drawing dated to 1543 was probably realized with another silverpoint, containing about 3 wt% of Cu. This difference in the chemical composition of drawings from the late period might be used as a more precise dating indicator of Baldung drawings that are not clearly attributed to a certain period.

T1 - Empfehlungen zur Vermeidung von Überdrücken an Tankfahrzeugen bei Untenbefüllung N2 - Das Risiko von Überdrücken bei der Untenbefüllung von Tankfahrzeugen hat zu Vorfällen mit zum Teil erheblichen Sach- und Personenschäden geführt und ist ein nicht auszuschließendes Gefährdungspotential für Menschen, Umwelt, Anlagen und Transportmittel. Zur weiteren Verbesserung des Managements dieses Risikos und seiner potentiellen Auswirkungen hat der MWV die DGMK gebeten, das Thema in einem Projekt zu bearbeiten, um mögliche Sicherungsdefizite aufzudecken und Lösungsmöglichkeiten aufzuzeigen. Als Forschungsstelle wurde die Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt (PTB) ausgewählt, die das DGMK-Projekt 727 „Überdrucksicherung an Tankfahrzeugen“ gemeinsam mit Vertretern von Tankfahrzeug- und Armaturenherstellern, Mineralölindustrie sowie der Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und -prüfung (BAM) bearbeitet hat. In Messungen an zwei Füllstellen wurden reale Druck-, Temperatur- und Volumenstromverhältnisse für die Beladung eines Tankfahrzeugs aufgenommen. Es wurde festgestellt, dass es in einem Tankfahrzeug, in dem keine zusätzlichen Druckverluste wie z. B. durch Vereisungen im Inneren der Kippventil-Flammendurchschlagsicherungs-Armatur auftreten, zu keinem unzulässig hohen Druckaufbau in einer Tankwagenkammer kommen kann. Zusätzlich erfolgten Versuche in einer Kältekammer, um die Möglichkeit und die Randbedingungen einer Vereisung des Kippventils und der Flammendurchschlagsicherung zu ermitteln. Mit diesen Ergebnissen sind Szenarien erarbeitet worden, die bekannte Überdruckschadensereignisse erklären können. Aus einer Gefährdungsbeurteilung heraus wurden Maßnahmen beschrieben, wie zukünftig solche Überdruckschäden an Tankfahrzeugen vermieden werden können. Aufbauend auf den Ergebnissen des Projektes hat die Projektbegleitung diese und weitere Maßnahmen hinsichtlich ihrer Umsetzbarkeit diskutiert und die vorliegende Empfehlung zur Vermeidung von Überdrücken an Tankfahrzeugen bei Untenbefüllung erarbeitet.
