Filtration influence in a constant potential X-ray machine peak voltage measurements

A Simple Form of Influence Machine for X-Ray Work

To get X-rays out of a suitable vacuum tube, it needs to be excited by an electric discharge at a tension of hundreds of thousands of volts. Such a discharge is furnished by the induction coil and by the static induction or " influence" machine, associated in its most elegant and effective form with the name of Mr. Wimshurst. In spite of the obvious advantages of the latter type of machine over...

X-ray peak broadening analysis in LaMnO3+δ nano-particles with rhombohedral crystal structure

In this work, structural and magnetic properties of LaMnO3+δ compound prepared by citrate precursor method and annealed in presence of oxygen are investigated. The structural characterization of LaMnO3+δ by X-ray powder diffraction and using X’pert package and Fullprof program is evidence for a rhombohedral structure (R-3c space group) confirmed by FTIR measurement. The magnetic measurements sh...

Entrance surface dose measurements for routine X-ray examinations in Chaharmahal and Bakhtiari hospitals

Background: There is not any report on the radiation doses received by patients in diagnostic radiology sections in hospitals under control of Chaharmahal and Bakhtiari Medical Sciences University, in the south west of Iran. Objectives: The aim of this study is measurement of entrance surface doses (ESD) for the most routine types of X-ray procedures in radiology centers as part of ongoing d...

X-ray diffraction peak profile analysis of maraged Fe-Ni-Mn steels

X-ray diffraction peak profile analysis was used to identify changes in the lattice distortions during isothermal aging of Fe-10Ni-7Mn (wt. %) maraging steel. Integral peak breadths were analyzed using classical Williamson-Hall equation taking the elastic anisotropy into account. It was found that substantial lattice distortions rise during precipitation hardening which depend strongly on the s...
