UX2-234: Testing this unusual 1" beta check disc.
25mm diameter but 10mm thick, and much heavier than a normal test disk.

Maybe.

Re: Wavelenght Dispersive Microanalysis
WDS is definitely on topic Steve, We welcome any and all threads concerning the practice.One of the things I do is service the Tel-X-Ometer unit, it is a sort of college level WDS and all around X-Ray

Wavelenght Dispersive Microanalysis
I was talking to Mike Spilde at UNM about mineral analyses for some of the low Z elements like Be, since you can't do that with xrf. He gave me some information about how he does it with this WDS

Re: Trinitite
Attached is a fresh .mca scan of the larger one of the 2 pieces of unusual Trinitite. This scan is of a surface, the earlier scan above (just a picture) was of an edge. The edge is most interesting

Re: Trinitite
Concerning the 13-17 keV X-Rays in Trinitite. When we detect Np- X-Rays, where do they come from? One way is from XRFing Neptunium element by adding energy to it. The other obvious way is by

Re: Trinitite
Yep, that's the one and only I've found too. Pretty sure that was Jon R's work for Bill K-s book.Sure would like to see many more HPGe Trinititte scans, especially of matereril that is not sand.Geo

Send the mca files with your pictures and a brief write up of the set up. Dud Sent: Tuesday, February 11, 2020 12:18 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [XRF] Trinitite Ok this one IS Trinitite,

Re: Trinitite
Pretty cool Geo. Attached is a part of the HP-Ge scan of trinitite in the Pittauerova paper, the peaks in grey are x-rays. Interesting. Steve ________________________________ Sent: Tuesday, February

Re: Trinitite
Ok this one IS Trinitite, but an unusual form, perhaps unique, I suspect this has no Europium, etc. but does have the usual plutonium daughters and Cs-137 fission
Re: Brannerite! (or is it?)
Dud, Gunnar is in room 266 at this venue. He has a lot of interesting stuff including petscheckite associated with columbite-Fe. Perhaps you would have better luck understanding his mineral id

Re: Trinitite
Not Trinitite, but a tool I use for calibration of the instruments when testing Trinitite. Uranium L and y (gamma) Lines: Geo>K0FF

Re: Brannerite! (or is it?)
Thanks for the offer and for the sodium offer.I'll keep that in mind and appreciate. Right now I'm swamped with re-running all my present samples on the Si-PIN.Say Steve, do you know Bruze?Geo>K0FF

Re: Brannerite! (or is it?)
Charles, I can¡¯t tell if there is any Th there from the XRF. Run a gamma spec and see. It¡¯s interesting that there is some Ba there which interferes with the Ti Where is he located I¡¯d like

Sorry that I forgot to attach the .mca file. Here it is. So I went back to the dealer today. Gunnar Faerber is a highly experienced collector and has his own analysis equipment. Unfortunately,

If you need a chunk or monazite, let me know, I've got plenty of it. ________________________________ Sent: Monday, February 10, 2020 8:25 PM To: [email protected] <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [XRF]

Re: Brannerite! (or is it?)
You are correct Geo, those are not very accurate. Charles ran a specimen of xenotime from Madagascar that I had in my collection for years, a rather expensive one. It may have been from Madagascar so
