- Description
- PLEASE SEE ATTACHED RFQ FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION The X-ray Lab in the Planetary Environments Laboratory (code 699) at Goddard Space Flight Center is purchasing a micro-X-ray diffractometer (XRD) in order to take the facilities at NASA GSFC into the next generation of high-resolution mineralogical analysis of�geological samples, including samples that contain clay minerals and poorly-ordered materials. In doing so, the X-ray lab will be suited with state-of-the-art laboratory equipment�and software and positioned well to play a significant role in future planetary sample return�missions, particularly Mars Sample Return (MSR). The goals for this instrument are to provide (i) the highest resolution currently available for mineralogical analysis (ii) the ability�to analyze and quantify the mineralogy of a small mass of precious powder samples (e.g.,�<30 mg), and (iii) the unique capability of mapping rock samples for mineral spatial variability with a small spot size (i.e., ?60 microns).
