Residual stress analysis - Goebel
Mirrors and pinhole collimators
 Cross coupled Goebel
mirrors provide a highly
parallel highly intense Xray beam perfect for
stress analysis
 Pinhole collimators
reduce spot size down to
50 microns
 Coupled with laser /video
alignment system, stress
in sample can be mapped
a function of position
