Title: Parameterization of the bremsstrahlung spectrum

Abstract

A parameterization is provided for the bremsstrahlung spectrum in the incident electron energy range 10 to 500 keV for all elements, with particular emphasis on the range 20 to 100 keV for Z = 41 to 92. A general accuracy of 20% is achieved, with 50% in the worst cases, in most ranges utilizing simple one variable functions.
