The discharge is formed around the rod shaped cathode in pulsed high voltage regime with the possibility to change pulse width, duty cycle and electric parameters. The cathodes made of copper, stainless steel, aluminum and graphite are used in the frame of this study. In case of argon carrier gas, the fitting function consisting of two Gaussian profiles is applied and the side-on H<sub>α</sub> profiles (observation angle 90° relative to the surface normal) are analyzed in order to measure mean kinetic energy, maximum gained energy and the contribution of fast excited atoms to overall H I profile. The pedestal of the H I line reflects the presence of fast H* atoms in the discharge. From the end-on H I profiles (observation along the surface normal), the maximum H* energy is deduced and compared with the side-on results. The radial distribution of fast H* depicted the linear decrease of mean kinetic energy near the cathode surface as well as the strong dependence of excessive broad component area with gas pressure. In case of H<sub>2</sub>, H<sub>2</sub> + 5 % Ar and Ne+0.8 % H<sub>2</sub>, the overall fit comprises three Gaussian components. In case of graphite cathode, the mean kinetic energies are 37 eV (Ar + 3 % H<sub>2</sub>), 102 eV (H<sub>2</sub> + 5 % Ar), 76 eV (N<sub>2</sub> + 5 % H<sub>2</sub>), 167 (Ne+0.8 % H<sub>2</sub>) and 180 eV (H<sub>2</sub>). The energy of fast H* atoms with the graphite cathode (the maximum voltage not exceeding 750 V) has the lowest value mainly due to low values of energy reflection coefficients. The maximum energy gained in the sheath (∼425 eV) is achieved for the copper cathode and neon‑hydrogen mixture.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":21890,"journal":{"name":"Spectrochimica Acta Part B: Atomic Spectroscopy","volume":"226 ","pages":"Article 107156"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2025-02-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143429967","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper proposes using EDXRF for the quick determination of calorific values, demonstrated through a case study on leaching slag and coke mixtures from zinc smelting. The investigation focuses on detecting calorific values in complex solid materials via X-ray fluorescence, highlighting key factors that influence method stability and accuracy. The results show that (1) Quantitative analysis of calorific values through X-ray fluorescence allows plotting numerical relationships between total spectral count rate, Compton scattering peak intensity (Mo-Ka-C), and Rayleigh scattering peak intensity (Mo-Ka). (2) Factors such as raw material particle size, water content, and instrumental parameters significantly affect detection stability; moisture is particularly critical. As water content increases from dry to 30 wt%, the correlation coefficient between total count and calorific value decreases from 0.8901 to 0.50342.
