  2. Texture filtering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texture_filtering

    During the texture mapping process for any arbitrary 3D surface, a texture lookup takes place to find out where on the texture each pixel center falls. For texture-mapped polygonal surfaces composed of triangles typical of most surfaces in 3D games and movies, every pixel (or subordinate pixel sample) of that surface will be associated with some triangle(s) and a set of barycentric coordinates ...

  3. Volume rendering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume_rendering

    Multiple X-ray tomographs (with quantitative mineral density calibration) stacked to form a 3D model Volume rendered CT scan of a forearm with different color schemes for muscle, fat, bone, and blood In scientific visualization and computer graphics , volume rendering is a set of techniques used to display a 2D projection of a 3D discretely ...

  4. Texture mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texture_mapping

    A texture map [5] [6] is an image applied (mapped) to the surface of a shape or polygon. [7] This may be a bitmap image or a procedural texture.They may be stored in common image file formats, referenced by 3D model formats or material definitions, and assembled into resource bundles.

  5. Phase-contrast X-ray imaging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase-contrast_X-ray_imaging

    X-ray absorption (left) and differential phase-contrast (right) image of an in-ear headphone obtained with a grating interferometer at 60kVp. Phase-contrast X-ray imaging or phase-sensitive X-ray imaging is a general term for different technical methods that use information concerning changes in the phase of an X-ray beam that passes through an object in order to create its images.

  6. X-ray background - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X-ray_background

    The galactic X-ray background is produced largely by emission from hot gas in the Local Bubble within 100 parsecs of the Sun. Deep surveys with X-ray telescopes, such as the Chandra X-ray Observatory , have demonstrated that around 80% of the cosmic X-ray background is due to resolved extra-galactic X-ray sources, the bulk of which are ...

  7. Wide-angle X-ray scattering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wide-angle_X-ray_scattering

    The term WAXS is commonly used in polymer sciences to differentiate it from SAXS but many scientists doing "WAXS" would describe the measurements as Bragg/X-ray/powder diffraction or crystallography. Wide-angle X-ray scattering is similar to small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) but the increasing angle between the sample and detector is probing ...

  8. Particle-induced X-ray emission - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particle-Induced_X-ray...

    Particle-induced X-ray emission or proton-induced X-ray emission (PIXE) is a technique used for determining the elemental composition of a material or a sample.When a material is exposed to an ion beam, atomic interactions occur that give off EM radiation of wavelengths in the x-ray part of the electromagnetic spectrum specific to an element.

  9. X-ray emission spectroscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X-ray_emission_spectroscopy

    X-ray emission spectroscopy (XES) is a form of X-ray spectroscopy in which a core electron is excited by an incident x-ray photon and then this excited state decays by emitting an x-ray photon to fill the core hole. The energy of the emitted photon is the energy difference between the involved electronic levels.
