Scattering contribution and higher order harmonic contamination in attenuation measurement in the x-ray regime for copper

  • 1. University of Melbourne, VIC (Australia). School of Physics

Description

Full text: High-precision attenuation measurements can now lead to a direct assessment of scattering models in the X-ray regime. This is true not just at high energies but even when scattering cross-sections typically lie below 0.1% of the photoelectric absorption cross-section. This allows model-independent results to be obtained in these attenuation experiments for the first time. One of the major concerns in synchrotron studies is higher order harmonic contamination. Our technique of optimising and correcting for this effect will be discussed
