syris
Keywords: simulation, free-space propagation, tomography
Syris (synchrotron radiation imaging simulation) is a framework for simulations of X-ray absorption and phase contrast dynamic imaging experiments, like time-resolved radiography, tomography or laminography. It includes X-ray sources, various sample shape creation possibilities, complex refractive index lookup options, motion model and indirect detection model (scintillator combined with a conventional camera). Phase contrast is simulated by the Angular spectrum method, which enables one to include various optical elements in the simulation, e.g. gratings and X-ray lenses.
