Full description
University of Texas High-Resolution X-ray CT Facility Archive Chin: DMNH-128286: Scan of a fossilized egg (DMNH-128286; Kaiparowits Fm., Late Cretaceous, Campanian, Grand Staircase, Utah) for Karen Chin of the University of Colorado at Boulder. Specimen scanned by Matthew Colbert on 27 March 2018. 16bitTIFF: Scan parameters: NSI scanner. Fein Focus Microfocal source, 110 kV, 0.16 mA, no filter, Perkin Elmer detector, 0.25 pF gain, 1 fps, 1x1 binning, no flip, source to object 133.85 mm, source to detector 1316.664 mm, non-continuous CT scan, 2 frames averaged, 0 skip frames, 3000 projections, 6 gain calibrations, 0.762 mm calibration phantom, data range [-10.0, 500.0] (grayscale adjusted from NSI defaults), beam-hardening correction = 0.2. Post-reconstruction ring correction applied by Jessie Maisano using parameters oversample = 2, radial bin width = 21, sectors = 32, minimum arc length = 8, angular bin width = 9, angular screening factor = 4. Voxel size = 9.7 μm. Total slices = 1349.
