Practical approaches in quantitative x-ray Fluorescence analysis
Abstract
An evaluation of the accuracy of X-ray fluorescence
analysis for heavy. elements (Z > 48) using L-series fluorescence
X-rays has been performed.
A method for fast elemental analysis of a large number
of samples by normalising elemental intensities to intensities
of the incoherently scattered excitation X-rays has been
developed for practical use.
The potential usefulness of the XRFA technique has been
demonstrated by analysis of uraniferrous soils, fluorspars
from Ken~~ and uranium standard reference materials f~om the
International Atomic Agency (I.A.E.A.).
The Accuracy of Analysis has been estimated to be
6 - 10%.
