Project description

Speckle-based X-ray imaging is a novel method to acquire phase-contrast and dark-field datasets, two imaging modalities which yield key information about the material under investigation. We will investigate the spectral behavior of this technique in a lab environment by using a novel hyperspectral X-ray detector and exploit the additional information embedded in this spectroscopic signal.
