Dynamic X-ray CT of Spaghetti Noodles

The dataset consists of a scan of a pasta bundle (Albert Heijn – Spelt), placed inside a bottle. The pasta was suspended at the bottleneck using a sponge to hold it in position. Scanning was focused on the bottleneck region to minimize interference from surrounding water. This scan was performed under dynamic thermal conditions: the bottle was filled with a 50/50 mix of boiling and cold water, leading to a gradual change in temperature during the scan. This setup tries to mimic cooking conditions, allowing observation of structural changes in the pasta as it is exposed to varying thermal environments. Exact temperature values were not recorded.
