Calculations of Thick Target X-Radiation for Continuum Electron Beams Incident Upon Aluminum,Copper,Molybdenum,and Tungsten Targets.

摘要

A Monte Carlo electron beam transport program is used to calculate thick target X-ray spectra for use when interpreting X-ray spectral data from plasma generators possessing superthermal electron components. Spectra are calculated for various monoenergetic and continuum electron beams between 5and 300keV normally incident upon Al,Cu,Mo,and W targets. Calculations are presented at detection angles of 95, 105, 115, 135,and 175degrees with respect to the electron beam direction. (Author)
