Measurement of X-ray absorption coefficient of Niobium using the Synchrotron radiation source

Abstract

The X-ray absorption coefficient of niobium in the energy range 18.5-19.7 keV around the k-edge is measured using scanning EXAFS synchrotron radiation source. The discrepancies between the measured absorption coefficients and alternative theoretical predictions are discussed. Keywords— Absorption coeffiecient,Synchrotron Radiation, EXAFS
