Diffraction Contrast Tomography Reconstruction Of An Aluminium-Lithium Tension Specimen

This data set is the reconstruction of the polycrystalline microstructure of a small tension specimen made of Aluminium-Lithium alloy. The specimen is approximately 0.5 mm in cross section. The data is the result of 3 DCT scans merged together. The spatial resolution is 1.4 micrometer. The data was acquired at the ID11 beamline at The European Synchrotron Radiation Facility and reconstructed using the DCT software available at https://sourceforge.net/projects/dct/ The data is provided in HDF5 format, compatible with open source packages such as Paraview and DREAM3D. The laboratory coordinate system XYZ corresponds to the sample position when all the diffractometer rotations are zero.
