ABSTRACT:
A fluorescent X-ray quantitative analysis apparatus generates a stream of primary X-rays that are subject to variable conditions such as voltage, X-ray filters, and gas conduit conditions. A sample is supported to receive the beam of primary X-rays, and then measurements are made of the secondary X-rays resulting from impact with the sample. Conditions are changed to affect the primary X-rays, and a second measurement is made of the secondary X-rays from the sample. A computer circuit can determine the concentration of elements in the sample from their respective measurements, for example, by resolving a plurality of simultaneous equations.
