Abstract

A comprehensive Fortran IV program designed to perform the matrix correction in x-ray fluorescence analysis is described. Specimens and standards can be in bulk or film form. All necessary fundamental parameters are provided by internal routines thereby requiring a minimum of input data.

Type
