X-ray-powered research is aiming to target sneaky hazardous materials making their way through airport security. The study, recently published in Scientific Reports, proposes a new design for a fast and powerful X-ray diffraction (XRD) technology able to identify potential threats. The work could be a notable step toward more accurate luggage scanning in airports.  “The…
