Series of synchrotron X-ray tomograms of aluminium alloy foams in the liquid state are takencontinuously at a temporal resolution of 208 per second. Sliding window reconstruction methods were used toincrease the temporal resolution to resolve the order of a bubble rearrangement process caused by coalescence.
