T1 - Quantitative micro-XRF combined with X-ray imaging reveals correlations between Zn concentration and dentin tubule porosity across entire teeth N2 - Bony materials are biogenic composites of protein fibers and mineral that create hierarchical structures. In the case of teeth, dentin is the main component and similar to other bones, it contains porosity at multiple length scales. It is traversed by micron-sized hollow channels known as dentinal tubules, essential for temperature and pain sensation. Tubule density and thus porosity vary throughout the macroscopic three-dimensional (3D) structure, with porosity increasing toward the pulp. The different densities in teeth are easily revealed non-destructively in 3D by X-ray imaging using computer tomography (CT). Yet elemental composition analysis is more difficult to obtain from within the centimeter-sized heterogeneous bulk material. We describe an approach of merging CT measurements of healthy, intact bovine teeth with micro-X-ray fluorescence (micro-XRF) images of matching serially sectioned slices. Through the combination of multi-resolution quantitative CT measurements with elemental mass fraction derivation, gradients in density and element distributions such as calcium (Ca), phosphorus (P), and zinc (Zn) are revealed across entire teeth in 3D. While the main constituents (Ca and P) are homogeneously distributed in the matrix, Zn concentration increases significantly and exponentially toward the pulp. We find an inverse association between dentin tissue density and Zn concentration localizing this element in or around tubules. Our data serve as a quantitative reference for density and Zn mass fractions in healthy, neither carious nor hypermineralized dentin, as a basis for comparisons across species in health and disease states.

T1 - Performance of a polycapillary halflens as focussing and collecting optic - a comparison N2 - Polycapillary halflenses are widely used to focus X-ray radiation onto a small spot. Additionally they can reduce the field of view of a semiconductor detector when placed in front of one. In 3D micro X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy (3D Micro-XRF) with synchrotron radiation, two polycapillary halflenses are used in a confocal geometry. Up until now, characterization measurements in the focal plane have only been performed in the case of the lens focusing parallel radiation. Assumptions have been made, that in the other case, when isotropic radiation from a spot source is transported to a detector, the acceptance distribution in the focal plane is also Gaussian. We performed measurements with an electron beam as well as a proton beam which confirm this assumption. In addition, a comparison between measurements in collecting and focusing mode show differences in spot size and transmission. These differences exemplify the fact that there is not one global spot size or transmission function of a polycapillary halflens. Illumination and divergence effects can alter both characteristic lens parameters.

A1 - Kindzorra, Emanuel A1 - Hahn, Oliver T1 - Provenance studies on Dead Sea scrolls parchment by means of quantitative micro-XRF N2 - In this study, we address the question of the provenance and origin of the Dead Sea Scrolls manuscripts. A characteristic low ratio of chlorine to bromine, corresponding to that of the Dead Sea water, may serve as an indicator for local production. For this aim we developed a non-destructive procedure to determine the Cl/Br ratio in the parchment of these manuscripts. Micro-X-ray fluorescence (µ-XRF) measurements of a large number of parchment and leather fragments from the Dead Sea Scrolls were analyzed with a routine we developed based on fundamental parameter quantification. This routine takes into account the absorption of the collagen matrix and the influence of the different sample thicknesses. To calculate the representative Cl/Br ratio for each fragment, we investigated the lateral homogeneity and determined the total mass deposition using the intensity of the inelastically scattered, characteristic tube radiation. The distribution of the Cl/Br ratios thus obtained from the µ-XRF measurements make it possible to distinguish fragments whose origin lies within the Dead Sea region from those produced in other locations.

T1 - 3D Micro-XRF for cultural heritage objects: new analysis strategies for the investigation of the Dead Sea scrolls N2 - A combination of 3D micro X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy (3D micro-XRF) and micro-XRF was utilized for the investigation of a small collection of highly heterogeneous, partly degraded Dead Sea Scroll parchment samples from known excavation sites. The quantitative combination of the two techniques proves to be suitable for the identification of reliable marker elements which may be used for classification and provenance studies. With 3D micro-XRF, the three-dimensional nature, i.e. the depth-resolved elemental composition as well as density variations, of the samples was investigated and bromine could be identified as a suitable marker element. It is shown through a comparison of quantitative and semiquantitative values for the bromine content derived using both techniques that, for elements which are homogeneously distributed in the sample matrix, quantification with micro-XRF using a one-layer model is feasible. Thus, the possibility for routine provenance studies using portable micro-XRF instrumentation on a vast amount of samples, even on site, is obtained through this work.

T1 - A fingerprint model for inhomogeneous ink-paper layer systems measured with micro X-ray fluorescence analysis N2 - Nowadays, micro-x-ray fluorescence analysis has become an established tool for the non-destructive investigation of art objects. However, as these types of sample often forms complex and inhomogeneous layer systems, the quantitative evaluation of the measurements is far from a standard routine. In this paper a fingerprint model is described, which we developed to discriminate between different iron-gall inks of historical manuscripts or compositions. Fundamental parameter methods are used to take self-attenuation, interference from the paper background and diffusion of the ink into the paper into account. The capability of the method to contribute to the solution of archaeometric problems is exemplified by the investigation of an ancient composition. Finally, the restrictions of the model and possible improvements are discussed. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
