Abstract

The numerical simulations of Cu and Cu fluorescence lines induced by Rh X-ray tube and by monoenergetic radiation have been presented. The copper intensity ratios for pure elements as well as for Ag–Cu alloys have been modeled. The results obtained by use of the FLUKA code, based on the Monte-Carlo approach, have been compared to available experimental and theoretical values. A visible relationship was found between the simulated intensity ratios and the copper content of the Ag–Cu alloy: As the Cu content increases, the coefficient decreases. The results can play role in elemental material analysis, especially in archaeometry.
