The complex aerodynamic footprint of desert locusts revealed by large-volume tomographic particle image velocimetry (2015)
Journal Article
Henningsson, P., Michaelis, D., Nakata, T., Schanz, D., Geisler, R., Schroeder, A., & Bomphrey, R. J. (2015). The complex aerodynamic footprint of desert locusts revealed by large-volume tomographic particle image velocimetry. https://doi.org/10.1098/rsif.2015.0119

Particle image velocimetry has been the preferred experimental technique with which to study the aerodynamics of animal flight for over a decade. In that time, hardware has become more accessible and the software has progressed from the acquisition o...

Iodine vapor staining for atomic number contrast in backscattered electron and X-ray imaging (2014)
Journal Article
Boyde, A., McCorkell, F. A., Taylor, G. K., Bomphrey, R. J., & Doube, M. (2014). Iodine vapor staining for atomic number contrast in backscattered electron and X-ray imaging. Microscopy Research and Technique, 77(12), 1044-1051. https://doi.org/10.1002/jemt.22435

Iodine imparts strong contrast to objects imaged with electrons and X‐rays due to its high atomic number (53), and is widely used in liquid form as a microscopic stain and clinical contrast agent. We have developed a simple technique which exploits e... Read More about Iodine vapor staining for atomic number contrast in backscattered electron and X-ray imaging.
