Efficiency calibration and surface mapping of an energy-dispersive detector with SOLEX: A compact tunable monochromatic X-ray source

  • 1. CEA, LIST, LNHB, Gif-sur-Yvette F-91191 (France)

Description

This work presents the different measurement possibilities of the SOLEX facility for the characterization of an energy-dispersive detector. We first describe the SOLEX apparatus, its energy range and the internal proportional counter used for absolute flux measurement then we give an example of an energy-dispersive detector characterization.
