Energy dependences of absorption in beryllium windows and argon gas

In part of an ongoing work on x‐ray form factors, new absorption coefficients are being evaluated for all elements, across the energy range from below 100 eV to above 100 keV. These new coefficients are applied herein to typical problems in synchrotron radiation stations, namely the use of beryllium...

Description
Summary:In part of an ongoing work on x‐ray form factors, new absorption coefficients are being evaluated for all elements, across the energy range from below 100 eV to above 100 keV. These new coefficients are applied herein to typical problems in synchrotron radiation stations, namely the use of beryllium windows and argon gas detectors. Results are compared with those of other authors. The electron–ion pair production process in ionization chambers is discussed, and the effects of 3d‐element impurities are indicated.
