A Simplified Apparatus for X‐Ray Quantitative Chemical Analysis with the Cathode‐Ray Tube

A compact oil‐immersed apparatus is here described where cathode rays from a cathode‐ray tube strike the substance to be analyzed and excite characteristic x‐rays. The measurement of these allows a quantitative chemical analysis of the substance to be made. The apparatus is a simplification of appar...

Zusammenfassung:A compact oil‐immersed apparatus is here described where cathode rays from a cathode‐ray tube strike the substance to be analyzed and excite characteristic x‐rays. The measurement of these allows a quantitative chemical analysis of the substance to be made. The apparatus is a simplification of apparatus already in use in this Laboratory. Data are given showing the accuracy and sensitivity of the analysis method.
