Monte Carlo simulation of Nb Ka secondary fluorescence in EPMA: comparison of PENELOPE simulations with experimental results
Secondary fluorescence across phase boundaries is a difficult problem encountered in several electron probe microanalysis (EPMA) situations: diffusion couples; small phases enclosed in a larger phases; eutectic intergrowths; and thin films. In some cases, it is possible to construct nondiffused couples and to measure the amount of secondary fluorescence across the phase boundary, but in most ca...
متن کاملNumerical correction for secondary fluorescence across phase boundaries in EPMA
A fast calculation method to compute secondary fluorescence near phase boundaries in electron probe microanalysis is described. Secondary fluorescence intensities are calculated by numerically integrating the equations that describe the emission of fluorescence by photoelectric absorption of primary X-rays (characteristic and bremsstrahlung) from a couple of two semi-infinite, adjacent material...
متن کاملFEG-EPMA of Solid State Redox Sensors – the Effect of Secondary Fluorescence on Analytical Precision
High-pressure oxygen fugacity (‘redox’) sensors are widely used to make estimates of the effective concentration of oxygen in experimental petrology. They typically rely on iron either diffusing into a nominally iron free mineral (e.g. iron into magnesiowüstite [1]) or iron alloying with a noble metal[2, 3]. In both cases the iron content of the sensor material should reflect the prevailing oxy...
متن کاملSimulations of (MC)AO for a 100m telescope
In this paper, we summarize the analysis made on various Adaptive Optics (AO) modes (including ShackHartmann (SH) and Pyramid Wavefront Sensors (PWS)) for the OverWhelmingly Large telescope (OWL). We will show some early results of the performance to be expected with a first generation AO system, working in the infrared. Several telescope diameters were considered to see the variations as a fun...
متن کاملMC Simulations for the PreSPEC campaign of AGATA at GSI
The next campaign of in-flight γ-ray spectroscopy experiments at the GSI Fragment Separator (FRS) will be performed, in the framework of the PreSPEC project [1], using the advanced γ-tracking array AGATA [2]. In order to exploit best its γ-efficiency and high intrinsic energyand spatial-resolution, the geometry and the physical arrangement of this multidetector needs to be optimized according t...
