Abstract

With a new irradiation chamber a comparison of three excitation modes under same conditions and with the same material has been done. The results of this comparison are presented in the following manner: - Barltla scattering (graphite) versus Bragg reflection (HOPS) - Bragg reflection (Mo) versus secondary target fluorescence (Mo) - secondary target fluorescence (Sn) versus Barkla scattering (graphite) Excitation spectra and detection sensitivities of a NBS standard will be discussed for the different modes. The Barkla scattering was found to be the best excitation mode for a wide elemental range.
