Abstract
This paper describes briefly the optimization of a PIXE setup. Three proton energies 1.5, 2.0 and 2.5 MeV and four kinds of absorbers BE (132 μm), Be (460 μm), Al (28 μm) and Be plus Mylar (460 μm+600 μm) were used. The minimum detection limits (MDL) of PIXE for these various combinations were computed and compared. PIXE analysis of Shaji ∗∗ ∗∗ Shaji is one of the common seabuckthoms. The Shaji referred to here belongs to Hippophae rhamnoides L. Subsp. Sinensis Rousi. was performed as an application. The result shows that the stack absorber of 460 μm Be and 600 μm Mylar films and a 2.0 MeV proton energy are most suitable for PIXE analysis of Shaji. Results of the Shaji analysis are presented.
