Fossilized T-Rex Skull To Undergo Neutron Beams, High-Energy X-Rays Exam
(WorldNews Mexico)

Researchers announced Tuesday they have produced the highest resolution scan ever done of the inner working of a fossilized tyrannosaur skull using neutron beams and high-energy X-rays, The Associated Press reported. By using these tools, the report said, scientists were given new clues that could be helpful to paleontologists in piecing together the evolutionary puzzle of the huge T. rex. Using the tools, researchers with Los Alamos National Laboratory and the New Mexico Museum of Natural History and Science peered deep into the skull of a `Bisti Beast,` a T. rex relative that lived millions of years ago in what is now northwestern New Mexico, the report said.
