Abstract

The ratio of proton-induced X-ray yields from thick targets with perfectly smooth and randomly rough surfaces is computed as a function of proton energy, target-detector geometry and X-ray attenuation coefficient. The rough surfaces are obtained by a Monte Carlo technique. Attenuation coefficient is shown to be the dominant parameter governing the effect of roughness.
