DETERMINATION OF BREMSSTRAHLUNG DISTRIBUTION USING THE ABSORPTION METHOD,

reportActive / Technical Report | Accession Number: AD0675427 | Need Help?

Abstract:

A complete procedure for using Greenings absorption method to determine the bremsstrahlung intensity distribution as a function of energy is presented. The fluorescent radiation from a tungsten anode is evaluated. The procedure is illustrated using exposure dose measurements from a 250 kV X-ray generator. A derivation of the essential mathematical expressions is given as an appendix. Author
