Continuum fluorescence of Cu in NbTi/Cu composite wires

Conference ·
OSTI ID:10136636

Continuum fluorescence across interfaces separating regions of differing composition is difficult to calculate. This paper illustrates a case of continuum fluorescence in analysis of superconducting NbTi/Cu composite wire which could lead to erroneous compositions due to Cu fluorescence by continuum x rays generated in an NbTi alloy. An approximate treatment of the continuum fluorescence is presented. 3 figs, 4 refs.
