I thought it would be cool to take a #microCT scan of romanesco broccoli that came in my meal kit this week, and I was not disappointed! What a stunningly beautiful vegetable 🤯 The scan was taken with our Rigaku HX130 (@rigakucorporation.bsky.social) here at Beckman (@beckmanillinois.bsky.social)

Rigaku and Spera Pharma are collaborating to bring electron diffraction into pharma workflows. With their XtaLAB Synergy-ED now fully commissioned, Spera offers ED-based services. We're proud to support their leadership. Read in the comments!

If you have big pile of money and thinking about buying a hypercar, I highly recommend buying electron diffractometer instead - much more fun!

If you do not have big pile of money, contact Rigaku, they may help you with measurement. Or maybe you already have electron diffractometer in your country?

An advice for fraudsters: use sharp razors.

Also, very interesting new model of a Rigaku diffractometer:

Exciting news! Rigaku’s poster, "Advanced X-Ray and Electron Based Techniques for Material and Cell-Level Battery Analysis" by Zijun Wang, is nominated for the MRS Best Poster Award! Out of 600 posters, only 10 were selected. Congrats to Zijun and the team!

Did you know Rigaku Oxford Diffraction is 10 years old?

To celebrate, our colleagues based at Rigaku Polska in Wrocław held a celebration and now has 2, yes 2 "Wrocławskie krasnale" en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wroc%C5...

We'd love to hear what you have to say about 10 years of ROD!

We have new instruments! Installed last week, a pair of Rigaku XTALab Synergy-S diffractometers. Looking forward to see how they handle our crystals!

Thanks to the @rigakuoxfordxrd.bsky.social installation team and @ukri.org and @uniofstandrews.bsky.social for funding.

#MicroCT scan of a living spider egg sac! The scan was completed in 18 seconds on our Rigaku HX130 scanner. Thankfully the spiderlings held still long enough for the scan.

Last week, Mark visited Prof. Ross Forgan, Dr. Claire Wilson and their group at the University of Glasgow to see the Rigaku Synergy-ED in action. It was fantastic to see our instrument helping to solve single crystal structures for compounds that would otherwise be out of reach.

Thanks to rotating anode advances, home labs now rival synchrotrons. As Simon Coles says, if diffraction fails in Southampton, it likely won't show at Diamond either. Full interview link in comments.

New video: we are collecting data from a sample containing Fe, which gives fluorescence with Cu radiation, and we use energy discirmination option of our Rigaku HypixArc100 detector to filter it. Then, we set up a data collection strategy.
