Abstract

Abstract In our laboratory the well known advantages of PIXE (particle-induced X-ray emission) have been combined with PIGE (proton-induced gamma-ray emission) for the analysis of light elements. PIGE has been set up for the analysis of thin samples of unknown weight and composition, overcoming the difficulties associated with the strong energy dependence of the prompt gamma reaction yields by using a proton beam whose energy is spread over a suitable interval. The application of the PIXE-PIGE system to the analysis of thin fly-ash samples is presented.
