Abstract

It is shown that in some cases radioisotope induced X-ray fluorescence can be a useful complement to PIXE analysis. This is a consequence of the different dependence of the ionization cross sections on atomic number for each technique. The effects of X-ray absorption and particle range in matter are examined and illustrated by the analysis by both methods of clays and ceramics. The importance of a convenient choice of source-detector combination is emphasized.
