HIGH-THROUGHPUT HIGH-PRESSURE SMALL-ANGLE NEUTRON SCATTERING SAMPLE CELLS AND ENVIRONMENTS
High-throughput high-pressure (HT HP) sample cells and sampling environments are disclosed herein. The HT HP sample cells include a top cell member and a bottom cell member that can be sealed together enclosing a sample in a pressure transmitter chamber. Further, the HT HP sample cells include a compressible, circular internal separator for compressing a sub-mL soft matter liquid sample. Further, the radiation beam windows of the HT HP sample cells are integral to the HT HP sample cell members. The novel and innovative HT HP sample cell design enables SANS measurements of the soft matter liquid sample when exposed to extreme temperatures and pressures without exhibiting leakage or cross-contamination of the soft matter liquid sample with the pressurizing fluid. Methods for using the HT HP sample cells in a pressurizing system for SANS analysis are also disclosed.

Method and apparatus for analysis of samples
A method and a device examine a sample with radiation emitted from a radiation source, which is directed to the sample carried by a sample holder via a beamforming unit and detected by a detector and evaluated in an evaluating unit. Prior to the examination of the sample, at least one of the following components, including the radiation source, beamforming unit, sample holder, detector, and a primary beam stop, are spatially oriented and/or positioned in relation to at least one of the other components and/or in relation to a predefined fixed point and/or in relation to the optical path with a control unit via actuating drives. The radiation intensity measured by the detector, in a predefined detector range, and/or a value derived therefrom is used for establishing a control variable conferred from the control unit to the actuating drives assigned to the components.

GENERATION OF FUSED ENVIRONMENTAL AND COMPOSITIONAL INFORMATION
A compositional visualization system comprises a sensor to collect contextual information, a particle generator to generate a first stream of one or more types of particles, and a detector to receive a second stream of one or more detectable products. The second stream is generated by interaction of the first stream with the environment. The system further comprises computer-executable instructions to cause the system to transform the received second stream into compositional data, and merge the compositional data with the contextual information to generate a merged digital representation. The merged digital representation can be displayed at one or more devices and can also be used directly to drive autonomous robotic systems.
