Résumé

Abstract X-ray radioscopy enables the in-situ monitoring of metal alloy processes and then gives access to crucial information on the dynamics of the underlying phenomena. In the last decade, the utilisation of this powerful imaging technique has been adapted to microgravity platforms such as sounding rockets and parabolic flights. The combination of microgravity experimentation with X-ray radioscopy has resulted in a leap in the understanding of fundamental science and has opened new paths in the fields of materials science. The present review focuses on the short history of this research, which includes facility developments, microgravity experiments and results obtained by partners of the XRMON (In-situ X-Ray MONitoring of advanced metallurgical processes under microgravity and terrestrial conditions) research project in the framework of the MAP (Microgravity Application Promotion) programme of the European Space Agency. Three illustrative research topics that were advanced significantly through the use of X-ray radioscopy will be detailed: solidification of metal alloys, metallic foam formation and diffusion in melts.
