An X-ray polarimeter for hard X-ray optics
Development of multi-layer optics makes feasible the use of X-ray telescope at energy up to 60-80 keV: in this paper we discuss the extension of photoelectric polarimeter based on Micro Pattern Gas Chamber to high energy X-rays. We calculated the sensitivity with Neon and Argon based mixtures at high pressure with thick absorption gap: placing the MPGC at focus of a next generation multi-layer ...
متن کاملImaging X-Ray Fluorescence Using Microchannel Plate (MCP) Optics
X-ray fluorescence imaging is a widely used, nondestructive method for determining the distribution and relative concentration of metals within a sample. To create a two-dimensional map of an image, x-rays are usually sent through a 25-250 μm wide aperture, then point by point an image is scanned. Microchannel plates contain an array of tiny holes that can be used to collimate x-rays fluorescin...
متن کاملDetection of breast cancer using non-invasive X-ray diffraction technique of hair: A preliminary study
Background: An early diagnosis of breast cancer relates directly to an accurate treatment plan and strategy. Early detection of breast cancer before its development would be a significant reduction of morbidity and mortality rates. The aim of this preliminary study is to investigate the sensitivity of Wide Angle X-ray diffraction (WAXRD) method on women hair samples of healthy and breast cancer...
متن کاملA hybrid method for X-ray optics simulation: combining geometric ray-tracing and wavefront propagation
A new method for beamline simulation combining ray-tracing and wavefront propagation is described. The `Hybrid Method' computes diffraction effects when the beam is clipped by an aperture or mirror length and can also simulate the effect of figure errors in the optical elements when diffraction is present. The effect of different spatial frequencies of figure errors on the image is compared wit...
متن کاملHVL evaluation of orthovoltage X-ray machine using EGSnrc code of simulation
Background: Making use of the orthovoltage machines in Radiotherapy, is one of the routine methods for the treatment of the superficial lesions. In this study, an important determinant of X-ray quality, the HVL (Half Value Layer), has been evaluated. Materials and Methods: The HVLs of a orthovoltage X-ray machine in 120 and 180 kVp are measured, using an empirical method, in which the HVLs are ...
