Detection systems for fluorescence EXAFS measurement

  • 1. SERC, Daresbury Laboratory, Warrington, (UK)
  • 2. Manchester Univ. (UK)

Description

The fluorescence detection systems currently in use for the measurement of EXAFS at the Daresbury Synchrotron Radiation Source are described. Each system consists of an array of NaI (T1) scintillation detectors. Methods of reducing the proportion of counts due to scatter are discussed. The advantages and problems associated with alternative detection systems are reviewed. Results are presented from measurements of energy resolution and count rate capability obtained with a prototype MWPC with a 10 cm thickness of gas
