Research using neutron and X-ray diffraction (on our KOWARI strain scanner, along with synchrotron radiation at the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility) has been featured on the cover of the October edition of Advanced Engineering Materials. The work, on time-dependent texture measurements on the age-old problem of plastic deformation in copper, was done by Kun Yan, Klaus-Dieter Liss, Ulf Garbe and Oliver Kirstein in the Institute, along with other authors at ESRF and the U. of Wollongong. The full reference is K. Yan, K.-D. Liss, U. Garbe, J. Daniels, O. Kirstein, H. Li and R. Dippenaar: "From single grains to texture", Advanced Engineering Materials 11/10, 771-773 (2009).
