Abstract: An X-ray article and method for analyzing hard X-rays which have interacted with a test system. The X-ray article is operative to diffract or otherwise process X-rays from an input X-ray beam which have interacted with the test system and at the same time provide an electrical circuit adapted to collect photoelectrons emitted from an X-ray optical element of the X-ray article to analyze features of the test system.

Abstract: In a vessel, such as a flexible bag, a fluid is received and agitated using an internal fluid-agitating element driven by an external motive device and supported by a bearing, such as a roller bearing.

Abstract: In a vessel, such as a flexible bag, a fluid is received and agitated using an internal fluid-agitating element driven by an external motive device and supported by a bearing, such as a roller bearing. The bearing may comprise a thrust bearing having at least one race fabricated of polyvinylidene fluoride and a plurality of associated rollers, preferably comprising a ceramic material, such as silicon nitride. Experiments show beneficial results in terms of particle generation when this particular combination of materials is used in the context of agitating fluids, and benefits as well when different materials are used to form the rollers.

Abstract: An apparatus is provided for intended use in pumping a fluid under sterile conditions. In one embodiment, a first rigid container is internally pressurized to pump fluid through a first flexible vessel within the rigid container. In another embodiment, first and second containers are provided, each for receiving flexible vessels that create independent pumping chambers upon the selective or periodic internal pressurization of the containers. Related aspects and methods are also provided.
