Abstract:Even though X-ray fluorescence (XRF) is strictly an atomic method, this technique has been developed mostly at research centers for nuclear physics. One of its most valuable variations is the mapping mode that allows it to shift XRF from a punctual to an image technique. Macro X-ray Fluorescence (MA-XRF) is a widespread analytical technique applied in cultural heritage for characterizing the elemental composition of pigments with a non-destructive, rapid and green approach. When dealing with cultural heritage … Show more
