A comparative study of X-ray tomographic microscopy on shales at different synchrotron facilities: ALS, APS and SLS
The 3D microstructure of shales is important to assess elastic anisotropic characteristics. In this study, microporosity and mineral components in two shale samples were investigated with X-ray tomographic microscopy at three synchrotron facilities: ALS, APS and SLS, and excellent agreement was observed.
