摘要: In previous work, the main interfering background for in vivo lead bone measurement was found to be from back-scattered Compton and Rayleigh source photons, which is, therefore, also problem improvement of sensitivity. Based on physics atomic transition, certain fractions characteristic K-series X-rays L-series are true coincidence. With an advanced CAMAC data acquisition system, experimental results presented preliminary quantitative methods analyzing coincidence spectra treated. A prototype spectrometer proposed work is studied by benchmarked Monte Carlo simulation this work. Additional information provided method (CXRF) sensitivity improved.
