Description
Summary:The XRF beamline at the VEPP-3 (Budker INP, Novosibirsk, Russia) storage ring was modified for the performance of scanning analysis. A description and parameters of this facility are presented in the current paper. The initial results of testing of scanning analysis of bottom sediments from Lake Baikal are also presented. A spatial resolution of the scanning analysis is 0.1–1 mm which corresponds to 2–50 years of resolution. Such a scanning analysis of lake sediments provides high quality data as a requirement for paleoclimate reconstructions.
