The same sherd was analyzed using a scanning electron microscope with energy dispersive spectroscopy (SEM-EDS) and a micro X-ray fluorescence tube attached to a scanning electron microscope (Micro-XRF-SEM) to compare the effectiveness of elemental detection of iron-based pigment. To enhance SEM-EDS mapping, the sherd was carbon coated. The carbon coating was not required to produce Micro-XRF-SE...

In this fMRI study, we explore the connectivity among brain regions in a shape-from-motion task using the causal mapping analysis of structural equation modeling (SEM). An important distinction of our approach is that we have adapted SEM from its traditional role in confirmatory analysis to provide utility as an exploratory mapping technique. Our current approaches include (I) detecting brain r...

Transmission electron backscattered diffraction, t-EBSD, in the scanning electron microscope, SEM, was initially described in 2010 [1]. After slow initial acceptance, the number of publications in which it is used is increasing markedly. Many of the first applications took advantage of the higher resolution of t-EBSD in the study of thin films [2], [3]. More recently it is being used for pre-sc...
