What Does PIXET Stand For?

PIXET stands for Proton Induced X Ray Emission Tomography

PIXET, or Proton Induced X Ray Emission Tomography, is an advanced analytical technique that utilizes proton beams to induce X-ray emissions from materials. This non-destructive imaging method provides detailed elemental composition analysis and spatial distribution of elements within a sample. PIXET is particularly valuable in fields such as materials science, geology, and biomedical research, enabling researchers to obtain high-resolution images and quantitative data on the composition of various materials.
