X-ray mass attenuation coefficient of silicon: theory versus experiment.
We compare new experimental x-ray total mass attenuation coefficients of silicon obtained with the x-ray extended-range technique (XERT) from 5 to 20 keV with theoretical calculations and earlier experimental measurements over a 5 to 50 keV energy range. The accuracy of between 0.27% and 0.5% of the XERT data allows us to probe alternate atomic and solid state wave function calculations and to ...
متن کاملRepresentative Elementary Length to Measure Soil Mass Attenuation Coefficient
With increasing demand for better yield in agricultural areas, soil physical property representative measurements are more and more essential. Nuclear techniques such as computerized tomography (CT) and gamma-ray attenuation (GAT) have been widely employed with this purpose. The soil mass attenuation coefficient (μ(s)) is an important parameter for CT and GAT analysis. When experimentally deter...
متن کاملInvestigation of the Mass Attenuation Coefficient for Composites Containing Nano and Micro-Particles of Copper Oxide against Diagnostic X-ray
Radiation protection and the selection of suitable materials to reduce radiation effects is one of the important branches of medical science and radiation. In this paper, the mass attenuation coefficients, half value layer thicknesses and thicknesses of 0/5 mm lead of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) composites containing Nano and micro-particles of copper oxide are calculated using experimental method...
متن کاملAnalysis of the Attenuation Coefficient of Composite Silicone Rubber and Gliceryn for Soft Tissue Phantom Applications
Introduction: Phantom is an object that can be used to investigate the accuracy of radiation dose delivered to patients. Phantom is usually produced from the combination of the silicone rubber as a matrix and glycerin as a filler to form a composite for the replacement of the human soft tissue. The composite is imaged using computed tomography (CT) simulator for the de...
متن کاملAttenuation coefficient of single-mode periodic waveguides.
It is widely accepted that, on ensemble average, the transmission T of guided modes decays exponentially with the waveguide length L due to small imperfections, leading to the important figure of merit defined as the attenuation-rate coefficient α=-⟨ln(T)⟩/L. In this Letter, we evidence that the exponential-damping law is not valid in general for periodic monomode waveguides, especially as the ...
