Description

The facilities of the NMCC have been opened to other scientists and researchers of universities and institutes in Japan for their academic contribution since 1993. A lot of study subjects of PIXE are accepted every year. We tried to confirm that elemental concentrations in a sample were determined exactly at the quantitative analysis using PIXE facilities at NMCC. The known quantity of a standard liquid sample was dropped and dried on a polycarbonate membrane filter that was used ordinarily as a backing film for an aerosol sample collection. The determined values of elements in targets agree with the values evaluated from the added quantities of the standard liquid samples. (author)
