Title: OverlapKeywords: X-ray lines, Overlaps Computer: BM PC or Compatible Operating System: MS-DOS Programming Language: Hardware Requirements: None Author(s): Chuck Herrington Correspondence Address : JEOL USA, Inc. 11 Dearborn Rd. Peabody, MA 01960 Abstract: The data and programs on this disk have been the result of work by Chuck Herrington of JEOL USA, Inc. The following is a list of files containedin this package. LVALUE is a Lotus 123 spreadsheet which calculates the crystal spectrometer X-ray positions given the crystal names and their 2d spacings in angstroms. LVALUE.PRN is the ASCII print out of 123. MDL is another 123 spreadsheet which calculates the Minimum Detection Limits of X-ray lines given the peak and background intensities in counts per second per nA, the beam current and the counting time. WAVELENG.DAT is an ASCII data file which contains the wavelengths in angstroms of the major X-ray lines for all the elements. This was necessary to do as the only data bases available were in keV and they do not have enough decimal places to do a good job calculating crystal spectrometer positions. OVERLAP has its own instructions in OVERLAP.DOC. It will determine any X-ray line overlaps within a set of elements.
