Description
Viva Books Fundamentals of X-Ray Physics 2009 Edition by G. V. Pavlinsky
The theory of the formation of characteristic and braking X-ray radiation is described. Special features of a number of sources of this radiation are discussed. Special attention is given to the interaction of X-ray radiation with matter (processes of absorption, scattering, refraction and reflection). The problems of excitation of X-ray fluorescence and its dependence on a number of factor is studied.About Author:Prof Gely Veniaminovich Pavlinsky is the Departmental Head at the Institute of Applied Physics in Irkutsk, Russia. He has published more then 120 articles in various scientific journals and specialized in the interaction of charged particles and photons with matter, X-ray fluorescence and development of theoretical fundamentals and procedures for X-ray fluorescence analysis.
