Description

Kβ/Kα X-ray intensity ratios of some K and Ca compounds were studied. The samples were excited with 59.5 keV γ-rays emitted from 75 mCi 241Am radioisotope source and characteristic K X-ray from the samples were counted by means of an Si(Li) detector which has a resolution 155 eV at 5.9 keV. We found that Kβ/Kα X-ray intensity ratios are changed by chemical effect for different K and Ca compounds. The experimental values were compared with the calculated theoretical values for elemental K and Ca. (author)
