Detectors are a key feature of the contemporary scientific approach to cultural heritage (CH), both for diagnostics and conservation. INFN-CHNet is network Italian National Institute Nuclear Physics that develops applies new instrumentation study CH. This process results in optimized traditional state-of-the-art highly innovative detection setups spectrometric techniques. Examples former X-rays, gamma-rays, visible-light particles spectrometers tailored CH applications, with performances,...
Digitalization techniques, such as photogrammetry (PG), are attracting the interest of experts in cultural heritage field, they enable creation three-dimensional virtual replicas historical artifacts with 2D digital images. Indeed, PG allows for acquiring data regarding overall appearance an artifact, its geometry, and texture. Furthermore, among several image-based techniques exploited conservation works art, multispectral imaging (MSI) finds great application study materials items, taking...
X-ray computed tomography (CT) is now used in the cultural heritage field because it non-invasive and can give a large amount of information on inner structure object under study. Until recently mainly medical CT scanners or micro-CT setups have been used, limiting analysis to relatively small artworks requiring multiple acquisition difficult image-joining for objects larger than detector dimensions. To overcome limitations ordinary devices, facility size artefacts has designed installed...
Beam test results of the radiation tolerance study chemical vapour deposition (CVD) diamond against different particle species and energies is presented. We also present beam on independence signal size incident rate in charged detectors based un-irradiated irradiated poly-crystalline CVD over a range fluxes from 2 kHz/cm2 to 10 MHz/cm2. The pulse height sensors was measured with readout electronics peaking time 6 ns. In addition functionality 3D devices demonstrated tests are shown be...
Abstract The provenance of raw lapis lazuli used since the Neolithic Age for realization carved artefacts can be pivoting reconstruction ancient trade routes. role main provider this material in times is generally attributed to Badakhshan quarries (Afghanistan), although other deposits could have been exploited as well antiquity. systematic multi-technique analysis rocks coming from four known source areas (located present-day Afghanistan, Tajikistan, Siberia and Chile) has led last years...
X-ray Computed Tomography (X-CT) is now an established technique for the investigation and diagnostics of Cultural Heritage. Its advantages include non-invasiveness, non-destructiveness, possibility exploring inner parts object without any modification. X-CT often employed to investigate construction methods complex artifacts made with different or materials, but it also able support analysis, intervention, monitoring enhancement processes artworks, creating digital models that can aid in...
Abstract Several types of (mostly) blue-green glass beads from Iron-Age archaeological sites in Central Italy were studied using a range spectroscopic techniques: portable X-Ray Fluorescence spectrometry, Fibre Optics Reflectance Spectroscopy, Scanning Electron Microscopy coupled with Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectrometry, micro-Raman spectroscopy and Laser Ablation Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry. Complementary information was gathered each technique discussed the frame typology...
