Recent Publications

Some papers and publications i have recently collaborated

Manuel Sánchez del Río, Juan Reyes-Herrera
Journal of Synchrotron Radiation, 32 (2025) 340-354
A new model for simulating undulator radiation has been developed for the ray-tracing software SHADOW4. This model is designed to accurately represent the characteristics of modern, fourth-generation synchrotron X-ray sources.
DOI

Nanomaterials (2022), 12(5), 744
A study analyzed sewage sludge from wastewater plants in Chihuahua, Mexico, revealing significant accumulation of titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO₂-NPs), a common nanomaterial from products like paint and cosmetics.
DOI

In Journal of Physics Conf Series 3010 (2025) 012004
To ensure the reliability of its new-generation beamlines, the ESRF is addressing a materials engineering challenge by adopting and rigorously testing the copper alloy CuCr1Zr for manufacturing durable, high-performance heat-absorbing components.
