Mineral inclusions in natural diamond are widely studied for the insight that they provide into the geochemistry and dynamics of the Earth's interior. A major challenge in achieving thorough yet high rates of analysis of mineral inclusions in diamond derives from the micrometre-scale of most inclusions, often requiring synchrotron radiation sources for diffraction. Centering microinclusions for diffraction with a highly focused synchrotron beam cannot be achieved optically because of the very high index of refraction of diamond. A fast, high-throughput method for identification of micromineral inclusions in diamond has been developed at the GeoSoilEnviro Center for Advanced Radiation Sources (GSECARS), Advanced Photon Source, Argonne National Laboratory, USA. Diamonds and their inclusions are imaged using synchrotron 3D computed X-ray microtomography on beamline 13-BM-D of GSECARS. The location of every inclusion is then pinpointed onto the coordinate system of the six-circle goniometer of the single-crystal diffractometer on beamline 13-BM-C. Because the bending magnet branch 13-BM is divided and delivered into 13-BM-C and 13-BM-D stations simultaneously, numerous diamonds can be examined during coordinated runs. The fast, high-throughput capability of the methodology is demonstrated by collecting 3D diffraction data on 53 diamond inclusions from Juína, Brazil, within a total of about 72 h of beam time.

Last week Arsenal signed Dani Ceballos on loan from Real Madrid, but what can we expect from him? I'm joined by Colin Millar, the editor of Football Espana, to talk about his career progression from Real Betis to Real Madrid, his difficulties at the Bernebeu, his potential as a player, what this loan move might mean for him and for Arsenal, his social media indiscretions, how this deal is being viewed in Spain and much more.

Colin also talks about his upcoming book: The Frying Pan of Spain:Sevilla v Real Betis: Spain's Hottest Football Rivalry (pre-order here).

On this week's show there's been transfer market excitement over the signings of William Saliba and Dani Ceballos, and the potential arrival of Nicolas Pepe has got everything at fever pitch. We chat about all three players, and in particular what the signing of Pepe – should it go through – mean for the team. However, there are still questions about our defence, made more pressing by the Laurent Koscielny situation, and we're asked if the transfer window can be considered a success without signing a centre-half. There are loads of other questions besides, including stuff about Edu, players we might sell, paying agents fees and lots more.

Our pre-season fixtures are finished, next up it's the opening game of the new campaign against Newcastle. James and I reflect on the Barcelona game and pre-season as a whole, as well as gauging our readiness as the Premier League looms. There's been excitement in the transfer market, and from young players, but there are question marks hanging over certain areas of the team, in particular the defence. Will we be able to find answers before the transfer window closes on Thursday? Then we have lots of listener questions about our centre-half situation, what kind of a season we can expect from Mesut Ozil, loaning or keeping young players, our line-up for Sunday and loads more besides.

The brand new Premier League season has kicked off and Arsenal beat Newcastle away from home and kept a clean sheet in the process. We chat about the game itself, the team selection, Aubameyang's goal, Maitland-Niles contribution to it, and the importance of chipping away at that difficult away record we've had over the last couple of seasons. We discuss the debutantes, the changes Unai Emery made during the game and what they might tell us about his approach this season, and reflect on what was a positive start to the new campaign. Then we have questions about the Mesut Ozil/Sead Kolasinac situation, the young players who played yesterday, how soon we might see David Luiz in defence, who might depart before the European transfer windows close, and lots more.

On this week's show James and I reflect on the 2-1 win over Burnley at the Emirates on Saturday. The two strikers got the goals, but there was a lot to like about our performance, in particular the home debut of Dani Ceballos, and his midfield partners Joe Willock and Matteo Guendouzi. We also chat about the home debuts for David Luiz and Nicolas Pepe, and what they might bring to the team over the course of this season, before we answer questions about playing out from the back, Emery's philosophy, what kind of a team we might pick for Liverpool on Saturday, our top four rivals, VAR and lots more.

On this week's show James and I disagree in a big way about the way Arsenal approached the 3-1 defeat to Liverpool. He saw logic in the game plan, I felt we just put ourselves under too much pressure allowing the full backs the time and space down the wings. We chat about the tactics, the team selection, the way the game could have gone with better finishing from Arsenal, Unai Emery's chameleon rearing its head again, as well David Luiz and his part in the defeat, plus the positives we definitely did agree on. Then we answer questions about our team for the derby against Sp*rs, Mesut Ozil's absence in a big away game again, Nacho Monreal's potential departure and lots more.

James is on holidays this week, so to pore over the 2-2 draw in the North London derby I'm joined by Tayo Popoola. We chat about the first half mistakes which gifted them two goals, not least the penalty conceded by Granit Xhaka. There's some discussion about him, his role in the team and the frequency of those errors which raise questions about the coach's decisions too, as well a lot on our comeback, the goals of Lacazette and Aubameyang, how Ceballos helped change the dynamic, and a fantastic performance from Matteo Guendouzi. Then we answer listener questions about Henrikh Mkhitaryan's departure, young players like Nelson and Willock, what the future holds for Mesut Ozil and Ainsley Maitland-Niles, Sokratis and the centre of our defence, and loads more.

Like most women's teams, Arsenal have had their fare share of stories to tell when it comes to anterior cruciate ligament injuries. On the one hand, Jordan Nobbs made her long awaited return from an ACL injury during August, coming on as a second half substitute before scoring in a 6-0 victory over Spurs. Tim and Pippa caught up with Jordan exclusively for the podcast just after that game.

On the flipside, Danielle Carter ruptured her anterior cruciate ligament for the second time in 14 months during the Emirates Cup game against Bayern Munich. The game was her first start since her last ACL injury and it's a difficult one to take for her, mentally as well as physically.

Female footballers are somewhere between 4-6 times more likely to rupture their ACL than their male counterparts. Tim and Pippa spoke to knee surgeon Pete Gallacher, who has performed plenty of ACL reconstructions, about what the injury is, what the surgery and recovery entails and why women are so much more susceptible to it.

We also have reaction to the Champions League draw with Fiorentina and Tim and Pippa pick out their players to watch for the season ahead and we have a cameo appearance from Danielle van de Donk. All that on this month's episode of the Arsenal Women Arsecast.

We're back after holidays, and on this week's Interlull heavy show we discuss Per Mertesacker whose new book comes out this week, touching on his job as Academy manager, his playing career, and how he's trying to shape the next generation of young Arsenal talent. There's a round-up of the scant Arsenal news, including injury worries for Granit Xhaka, the departure of Henrikh Mkhitaryan, and how Europa League and Carabao Cup could be very useful for us this month. We then answer listener questions about young English players, Nacho Monreal's legacy, Lucas Torreira and how he fits into the team under Unai Emery, Ceballos or Ozil for the Watford game, Arsene Wenger's upcoming biography and lots more including wasp picnics and slippery nuts.

On this week's show we pore over the 2-2 draw with Watford on Sunday, and what feels like a significant day for Unai Emery in his Arsenal career. Having been 2-0 up at the break, we were lucky not to lose, and the second half performance in particular raises serious questions about the manager and his team. Why do we allow so many shots? Why do we concede so many penalties? Is there enough accountability? Is there something in the culture at the club that accepts too many individual mistakes? We go into it in detail, from the goals we scored to the ones we conceded, what the result says about this team and its character, and what it means for Emery who is finding the tide of public opinion turning against him. All that, plus listener questions about the Europa League, Aubameyang's contract, Calum Chambers, Pepe's impact so far and lots more.

On this week's show we discuss the 3-2 win over Aston Villa which saw ten man Arsenal twice come from behind to take three important Premier League points. Does the comeback paper over the cracks though? It was another worrying performance, particularly in the first half – can Unai Emery's team continue to play like this and expect to win games? We chat about the performance of Matteo Guendouzi, the reaction to Granit Xhaka and the implications for the captaincy decision, Pepe getting off the mark, Aubameyang's contribution and leadership skills, as well as listener questions about Mesut Ozil, the centre of our defence, the future of the manager and lots more.

On this week's show we discuss the 1-1 draw at Old Trafford which, in isolation, isn't a bad result but in the context of this season and the needs of this team feels a bit bad. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's goal again highlighted his importance to the team, and in Guendouzi, Saka, Leno and Chambers, there were positives. But Unai Emery's approach remains under the spotlight, the performance was insipid, and his brand of football is hard to connect with. We chat about all that, as well as answering listener questions about Nicolas Pepe's early struggles, Ozil's absence, the captaincy, how to reshape midfield and more.

In this month's edition of the Arsenal Women Arsecast, Pippa and Tim are joined by The Athletic's Women's Football Writer Kieran Theivam. Kieran recently met with Joe Montemurro's older brother Anthony and his childhood friend from Melbourne, Sticca. Pippa and Tim talk to Kieran about Joe, getting a sense of his childhood and his career path. Kieran was in Milan for The Best awards recently and there is some chat about Vivianne Miedema's omission from the FIFPRO World XI- we also hear from Viv herself on the vote and then there is some chat with Joe Montemurro in the wake of the recent 4-0 victory over Brighton.

Arsenal's 4-0 win over Standard Liege was another enjoyable night of cup football, and James and discuss the game, the stand-out performances including two goal Gabriel Martinelli, Joe Willock and Kieran Tierney. We also chat about Hector Bellerin's return as captain, the impact the young players are having and try and figure out why they play with more panache and freedom than the 'first team', as well as listener questions about Shkodran Mustafi, Mesut Ozil's absence from the squad and what Unai Emery's post-match comments about the German tell us, some hashtag fun and lots more.

Arsenal go into the Interlull in third place in the Premier League after a 1-0 win over Bournemouth yesterday. The three points and clean sheet are very welcome, but the discussion revolves around the result and a performance which saw us have just two shots on target at home. Why can't we seem to produce good football in league games verus the cup performances? Can we continue to play like this and hope to finish in the top four? And what were the positives on the day? We also answer listener questions about Nicolas Pepe, Dani Ceballos, our midfield and Granit Xhaka, the woes being endured by Sp*rs and Man Utd, opposition managers and lots more besides.

It's an Interlull episode, and there's very little Arsenal news around. However, we wouldn't leave you without a podcast, and this episode includes Nico Yennaris and chicken's feet, Arsene Wenger's upcoming autobiography and how much we're looking forward to reading it, an international round-up involving Arsenal players, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang as player of the month and someone who deserves a new contract, Bellerin and Tierney, that Mustafi interview, dream jobs at Arsenal, buying a pint you don't want because you've been caught using a pub's toilets, and lots more.

On this week's show it's another dismal away day and a 1-0 defeat to Sheffield United. We chat about the game, the indifferent Arsenal performance, an inability to create chances despite having lots of possession, and how this is just the continuation of a run of form that goes back to last season too. Then the second half of the show is basically questions about Unai Emery and the work he's doing: boiling down to the big one, is he the right man for the club, and is it time to make a change? It's long, not particularly cheery, but I think we've covered all the angles.

On this post Europa League show, James and I discuss the 3-2 win over Vitoria, and in particular substitute Nicolas Pepe whose two sensational free kicks salvaged a win from the jaws of defeat. We chat about how this might impact him and boost his confidence, especially ahead of the weekend game against Crystal Palace. Other positives include Gabriel Martinelli, fitness boosts for some of our important players, and more, before a long discussion about Mesut Ozil, Unai Emery and what now appears to be a personal PR war between the two. What can the club do about this situation which has been festering for over a year? Then we have questions about the young players, Lucas Torreira's role, Bellerin and Tierney, how fans are feeling about our football and the manager, and one horrendous potential candidate to take over from Emery. All this and lots more.

Arsenal's 2-2 draw with Crystal Palace was disappointing, but the big story is the substitution of Granit Xhaka, the fan reaction to him and his reaction to the fans. Can we separate the footballer from the human being? What do we make of him having a pop back, even if his behaviour was wrong was it understandable that his emotion got the better of him? What next for him, in relation to playing and the captaincy, and is this just a symptom of a wider malaise? That, plus underwhelming football, more dropped points, increased pressure on Unai Emery, VAR costing Arsenal three points, as well as questions about social media likes, managerial candidates, unity and togetherness, season expectations and lots more.

Given that Granit Xhaka's statement came out last night, it wasn't covered in Episode 550 of the Arsecast. So here's a bonus Arsecast Extra episode in which James and I unpick what the Arsenal captain said. Why was it released through his own social media channel and not an official club one? Should we read anything into the lack of mention of the manager, or the captaincy? Was it really an apology? Can Xhaka stay on as captain? And what has the response of the club been like? That and more in this extra Arsecast Extra.

Another weekend, another disappointing result. The 1-1 draw heaps even more pressure on Unai Emery, and leaves Arsenal 6 points off the top four. We discuss the game, the manager's odd changes – in particular the absence of Nicolas Pepe. As you'd expect, Emery's future is up for discussion, so there are questions about him, when rather than if a change might be made, potential replacements such as Mikel Arteta and Freddie Ljungberg, the stories involving Jose Mourinho, and lots more.

Arsenal's 2-0 defeat to Leicester was bad enough in its own right, but the tone of the club's briefing as they outlined their support for Unai Emery made things even worse. James and I look back briefly on a game we never really looked like winning, before discussing the David Ornstein piece in The Athletic, how it came across, what it says about the way the club think about fans, and how it has dented some of the trust and belief that had been built up by Raul Sanllehi this summer. What kind of response should we expect from him, Edu and the board? As well as that lots of questions about the head coach, changing managers, should we be put off because of what's happened at Man Utd, and lots more.

In this month's edition of the Arsenal Women Arsecast, Tim and Pippa talk to Dutch women's football journalist Annemarie Postma about the Gunners Dutch contingent. Annemarie has been covering the Netherlands team for some years now and is the author of two books on Oranje Leeuwinnen. Tim and Pippa chat with Annemarie about her experiences of talking to Danielle van de Donk, Vivianne Miedema and Jill Roord, as well as the perception of them back home and their roles with the national team. The panel chat about departed Dutchies Dominique Bloodworth and Sari van Veenendaal too- both of whom left the club this summer.

Tim chats to Vivianne Miedema and Jill Roord exclusively for this episode and also talks to Leah Williamson about Vivianne Miedema as a teammate. It's a jam packed episode, so pass the Dutchie to the left hand side and get it in your lugholes!

Please note: There were some issues with the Vivianne Miedema audio, we've done our best to clean it up, but it's a bit wonky, sorry!

On this week's rambling Interlull episode, we serve up copious amounts of waffle and nonsense with some vaguely Arsenal related stuff in there. We start with the Arsenal Women beating Sp*rs 2-0, after that we chat internationals, Nicklas Bendtner, Santi Cazorla's tiny arms but surprisingly big feet, we get some incredible celeb insight in some current and former Gunners, we chat Lucas Torreira, the boardroom shenanigans, as well as Ian Wright's reality TV show exploits, kangaroo anuses, an Arsenal XI of the decade, number 1 records and loads more.

On this week's show we recap the 2-2 draw with Southampton, touching on Unai Emery's tactics, formation changes and substitutions. We wonder why it is we should have been so afraid of a team struggling in the relegation zone, and also why did a last gasp equaliser feel so empty? Emery's future is an ongoing issue, but we turn some focus on the decision makers at the club and ask why are they allowing this to continue? We chat about potential replacements, including Allegri, Arteta, Ljungberg and Vieira, ponder the January transfer window, rate our faith in club officials and lots more in this bumper but quite depressing episode. If you stick with it all the way through, we thank you!

In this episode we react to the news that Arsenal have sacked manager Unai Emery after 18 months in charge. It's a decision they were left with little choice over, form and performances have been poor, and we reflect on the Spaniard's Arsenal reign. What were the warning signs and the breaking points? Freddie Ljungberg has been named interim coach, what can we expect from him? Then we answer questions about potential long-term replacements, like Mikel Arteta, Patrick Vieira, Max Allegri, Brendan Rodgers and others, before talking about the people who have to make that decision. Is there faith in Raul Sanllehi and co, and what about the role of the owners KSE? All this and lots more.

On this week's show we look back at the 2-2 draw against Norwich, Freddie Ljungberg's first game in charge of Arsenal. We reflect on the team selection, some surprising decisions, the substitutions, defensive issues which run deep, heroics from Bernd Leno, and the absence of Nicolas Pepe. After that we have listener questions about the way we use our two strikers, the search for a permanent replacement for Unai Emery, the visit of Josh Kroenke to the training ground, why we're so panicked all the time, the responsibilities of Raul Sanllehi and his football executive committee and loads more.

On this latest episode we discuss the 2-1 defeat at home to Brighton as Arsenal's search for a win now enters its third month. We chat a bit about the game, the team selection and performance, but then turn to play recruitment as a key factor of the club's recent decline. How much responsibility rests on the shoulders of Head of Football Raul Sanllehi? Could KSE do more? And what should be driving the decision making process when it comes to the executive level choosing a new manager and turning things around on the pitch. We have questions about the January transfer window, if there's anything fans can do to help, whether we need to be worried about the R word, best potential outcome for the season, and lots more.

At last, a win for Arsenal! James and I are here to bask in the warm glow of our 3-1 victory over West Ham on Monday night. There was good and bad, but we focus on the positives, the three goal haul in nine second half minutes, Freddie's bold selection decisions, Gabriel Martinelli's impact on his first Premier League start and, of course, the contribution of Nicolas Pepe with a superb goal and an assist to his name. Is this the breakthrough moment for him? How much should we read into this result ahead of what's to come? All that, plus listener questions about the Europa League game this week; the process of choosing a new full-time head coach, who that might be, and when the decision might be made; the relationship between a manager and the fans; and lots more besides.

On this week's show the 3-0 defeat to Man City wasn't unexpected, but the obvious gulf between the two clubs is now even more obvious, and that's depressing. We chat a bit about the game, our defending and midfield deficiencies, Freddie's tough job and his calls for more from the hierarchy, and Mesut Ozil's substitution and reaction to it. Of course with pictures emerging of Arsenal executives leaving Mikel Arteta's house last night, we discuss his candidacy, what he might bring to the job if he gets it, the risks involved of appointing a rookie, but also why he might be the ideal man at this precise moment in time. There are listener questions about recruitment, the Europa League, Ozil and China and lots more besides.

In this episode James and I discuss the 0-0 draw with Everton, Freddie's team selection and a couple of positives before the conversation inevitably turns to Mikel Arteta. The 37 year was appointed head coach (manager) last week, so we chat about that, what we can expect from him in the short-medium turn, what he can bring back to the club, excitement over a new era, and his impressive press conference performance. Then there are questions about the January transfer window, the left back situation, racism in the Premier League and, of course, the one topic everyone can't get enough of: Arteta's hair.

In this episode James and I discuss 2-1 defeat to Chelsea at the Emirates yesterday. In spite of the result there were things to like about what Arsenal did, so we chat about those, how Mikel Arteta is trying to implement change, as well as the moments which lost us the game. Bernd Leno's mistake is the obvious talking point, but really poor defending brought about Chelsea's winner. The hectic schedule is another big talking point, as well as injuries and fatigue to take into account for Wednesday's game against Man Utd. We also answer listener questions about Aubameyang out wide, Nicolas Pepe's continued exclusion, Mesut Ozil's recent impact, transfer window predictions, moments of the decade and lots more.

For this month's episode of the Arsenal Women Arsecast Pippa and Tim are joined by women's football journalist Sophie Lawson. Tim and Pippa chat with Sophie about individual awards in women's football. Should they exist? Is there enough global coverage of the women's game to do them justice? Is there any problem with them being popularity contests? And is Vivianne Miedema unfairly overlooked when it comes to dishing out the baubles?

The panel also talk a little bit about the Conti Cup and whether it's still useful in its current format, the WSL title race and the arrival of Sam Kerr at Chelsea and what it could mean for the WSL salary cap. All that and more in this month's Arsenal Women Arsecast- the only and therefore the best podcast dedicated to the Arsenal Women's team.

On the first Arsecast Extra of 2020, I'm joined by Tayo Popoola, standing in for James who is away this week. We chat about the 1-0 win over Leeds in the FA Cup, the quintessential game of two halves. Leeds were on top in the first, we were far better in the second. We chat about turnaround, Mikel Arteta's half-time teamtalk, the response from the players, Sokratis rampaging down the wing, Reiss Nelson's goal, and the win itself. Then we have listener questions about Granit Xhaka's fouling and how it went down on TV, Nicolas Pepe and Matteo Guendouzi as players who need some rough edges polished off them, whether this is a false dawn under Mikel Arteta, protecting the 49 game unbeaten run and lots more.

On this week's show James returns to discuss the 1-1 draw with Crystal Palace on Saturday. We chat about the opening 30 minutes in which Arsenal dominated but failed to make the most of; the importance of Lucas Torreira; the Palace equaliser and what we could have done to avoid it; Aubameyang's red card; Lacazette's difficult time in front of goal; and signs of progress despite only taking a point. Then we answer listener questions about the January transfer market, which player from a bottom half Premier League team we'd sign, Rob Holding and Hector Bellerin, how we cope without Aubameyang for the next three games, and lots more.

On this week's show we chat about another draw, this time the 1-1 with Sheffield United at the Emirates on Saturday. Goal scoring and chance creation is obviously a talking point, as is letting another lead slip late in a game. There were positives though, in particular another goal for Gabriel Martinelli and a very good display from Bukayo Saka which should give Arsenal pause for thought when it comes to transfer rumours involving a left-back. We chat about our inability to close out a game, the penalty that wasn't given and the late goal we conceded. We then answer questions about the potential Kurzawa deal, whether we should expect more from Nicolas Pepe, Arteta's substitutions, Martinelli, Eddie Nketiah, and loads more.

On a special midweek edition of the show, James and I discuss the 2-2 draw with Chelsea last night at Stamford Bridge. Having gone a man down and a goal down, our prospects looked bleak, but something is happening with this squad under Mikel Arteta and we showed real strength in adversity. We examine the red card, the roles of Mustafi and Luiz, but focus on the Arsenal response including Gabriel Martinelli's brilliant goal, Hector Bellerin's late equaliser, Granit Xhaka playing superbly at centre-half, the hugely positive Bukayo Saka and what this result and performance might mean for the team, the manager and the fans.

Arsenal Women announced the signing of Australian international Caitlin Foord this week from Sydney FC. Caitlin will bolster her compatriot Joe Montemurro's squad after the Matildas' Olympic qualifiers in February. Pippa and Tim decided to get the lowdown on our new signing from the people that know. Pippa speaks to Arsenal fan, Portland Thorns season ticket holder and SB Nation writer Aidan Gibson about her two year spell with the Thorns and looks at how she might fit into the Arsenal team.

Then Tim chats with Australian women's football journalist Samantha Lewis of the Guardian and ESPN about Caitlin's international career, why this is a move that makes sense for the player, as well as a little bit on the recent influx of Matildas into the WSL.

On this week's show James and I chat about the 2-1 FA Cup win over Bournemouth, and Mikel Arteta's reward for putting his faith in youth. Arsenal's next generation were on show and won the game for us, so we discuss Joe Willock, Bukayo Saka, Gabriel Martinelli, Eddie Nketiah and Matteo Guendouzi. There's also transfer talk as we continue to be linked to centre-halves, but should we be spending money? How much will the Mustafi injury impact what we do? We make updated predictions on our potential business between now and the end of the window, consider the sales of Aubameyang and/or Lacazette, and lots more besides.

On this week's show James and I discuss the 0-0 draw away at Burnley. Arsenal spurned good chances, but the home side probably should have won it. We chat about the game, the team selection, Arteta's delay in dealing with the Bukayo Saka injury, the lack of away contributions from some big players, the complete lack of Nicolas Pepe, and who we should be pointing fingers at as we find ourselves struggling in mid-table. Then we answer questions about selling our two strikers in the summer, a good performance from Shkodran Mustafi, the future of Ainsley Maitland-Niles, and lots more.
