X-rays are widely used in university laboratories for scientific research, particularly through instruments such as X-ray diffractometers. These devices make it possible to analyse the crystal structure of solid materials, providing fundamental information for various fields of study, including:

  • Geology and Mineralogy: Identification and characterisation of minerals and rocks.
  • Materials science: Study of the structural properties of metals, ceramics and polymers.
  • Chemistry and Pharmacology: Analysis of crystalline compounds and drugs.
  • Cultural Heritage: Examination of historical and artistic materials for conservation and restoration.
