X-ray microanalysis of porous materials using Monte Carlo simulations.
Quantitative X-ray microanalysis models, such as ZAF or φ(ρz) methods, are normally based on solid, flat-polished specimens. This limits their use in various domains where porous materials are studied, such as powder metallurgy, catalysts, foams, etc. Previous experimental studies have shown that an increase in porosity leads to a deficit in X-ray emission for various materials, such as graphit...
متن کاملEfficient Monte Carlo Simulations of Gas Molecules Inside Porous Materials.
Monte Carlo (MC) simulations are commonly used to obtain adsorption properties of gas molecules inside porous materials. In this work, we discuss various optimization strategies that lead to faster MC simulations with CO2 gas molecules inside host zeolite structures used as a test system. The reciprocal space contribution of the gas-gas Ewald summation and both the direct and the reciprocal gas...
متن کاملMonte Carlo Simulations of X-ray Generation and Detection
The employment of Monte Carlo simulations in the applied nuclear physics techniques has increased with the data processing capabilities of the commercial personal computers. Since the inclusion of the low-energy electromagnetic interactions in GEANT4, this Monte Carlo simulation toolkit has produced results which reveal its promising utilization in radiation dosimetry, radiation protection and ...
متن کاملMonte Carlo simulation for an assessment of standard validity and quantitative X-ray microanalysis in plants
Protein matrices with known concentration of elements are used as standards in X-ray microanalysis of biological materials. The aim of the study was to assess if protein standards (gelatine) could be applied for quantitative X-ray microanalysis of carbohydrate material (cellulose) of plant cell walls by means of Monte Carlo simulations. Plant roots grown in Cs contaminated soil and gelatine wit...
متن کاملUnfolding X-ray spectrum in the diagnostic range using the Monte Carlo Code MCNP5
Introduction: Unfolding X-ray spectrum is a powerful tool for quality control of X-ray tubes. Generally, the acquisition of the X-ray spectrum in diagnostic radiology departments is complicated and difficult due to high photon flux. Measurement of x ray spectra using radiation detectors could not be performed accurately, because of the pulse pile up. Therefore, indirect methods...
