A new PIXE/PIGME analysis facility
Description
A new PIXE/PIGME ion beam facility is being developed for use on the 3MeV Van de Graaff accelerator. It will be used to analyse geological samples prepared on microscope slides. The samples will be movable in the X and Y axis using remote or computer controlled motorised micrometers. Other features of the rig include remote selection of X-ray detector filters and beam defining apertures. Beam current monitoring is by backscattering, whilst target positions are determined optically using a variable gain borescope. The rig will be a useful tool when analysing very small targets or when target scanning is necessary
