The Effect of Atomic Number in X-Ray Microanalysis

Further Studies of the Absolute Intensity of Emission of Characteristic X-Radiation

“…Campbell's (1963) results obtained with this same geometry are also shown together with Metchnik-Tomlin theoretical curves and also a curve (dashed) from Archard's (1960) theory as presented by Campbell (1963). Our theoretical curves were obtained using a value of WK = 2 ·00 X 10-3 , which gives good agreement with the experimental data.…”

“…The curves labelled MM and WT are our theoretical curves for WK = 0'045, and experimental points are also shown. In (a) the dashed curve is from Archard's (1960) theory, after Campbell (1963, with WK = 0·023. In (b) the curve S is from Suoninen (1964) for'" = 30° and WK = 0,028, while the experimental points of Dolby are for '" = 33° and those of Green and Cosslett have been converted to observed intensities.…”

“…This was the geometry used by Campbell (1963), and Figure 5(a) shows his results, a theoretical curve (dashed) due to Archard (1960), and our experimental results and theoretical curves. The latter were calculated with WK = 0·045 as determined by Bertrand, Charpak, and Suzor (1959).…”

“…This was the geometry used by Campbell (1963), and Figure 5(a) shows his results, a theoretical curve (dashed) due to Archard (1960), and our experimental results and theoretical curves. The latter were calculated with WK = 0·045 as determined by Bertrand, Charpak, and Suzor (1959). Since Campbell's results were about 65% of ours, we repeated the measurements with a plain Mylar window in the counter to eliminate any possibility of excitation of aluminium K radiation in this window.…”

“…Archard (1960) assumed two types of idealized electron paths in the target and fixed. the disposable parameters by reference to certain experimental results.…”
