- Cultural Heritage analysis using Synchrotron Radiation: case studies in Ceramics, Glasses, and Lithologic MaterialsPublication . Veiga, JP; Coutinho, ML; Figueiredo, Elin; Silva, TeresaABSTRACT: Synchrotron radiaton is a powerful tool for non‐destructve analysis of materials in cultural heritage research. It has revolutonized our ability to understand the compositon, structure, and history of cultural heritage objects, leading to significant advances in fields such as archaeology, art conservation, and materials science. Dedicated beamlines for cultural heritage research are available at synchrotron facilites around the world, such as the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF), SOLEIL synchrotron, and ALBA synchrotron, providing specialized support and instrumentation for high‐resolution analysis of cultural heritage objects using various techniques, such as X‐ray absorption spectroscopy, X‐ray fluorescence, X‐ray diffraction, and X‐ray imaging.
- Cultural Heritage, Materials Science and Synchrotron Radiation: a perspective from a group of Portuguese usersPublication . Veiga, JP; Coutinho, ML; Silva, Teresa; Figueiredo, Elin; Lima, M.M.R.A.; Saraiva, A.S.; Carvalho, FernandaABSTRACT: In this communication, examples to be presented are related to ancient ceramics, glasses, archaeological slags, inorganic pigments and lithologic materials where we were able to gain new insights into composition, structure and degradation processes, contributing to their preservation and interpretation for future generation.
