FLUKA Simulations of / Intensity Ratios of Copper in Ag-Cu Alloys.

The numerical simulations of Cu Kα and Cu Kβ fluorescence lines induced by Rh X-ray tube and by monoenergetic radiation have been presented. The copper Kβ/Kα intensity ratios for pure elements as well as for Ag-Cu alloys have been modeled. The results obtained by use of the FLUKA code, based on the Monte-Carlo approach, have been compared to available experimental and theoretical values.
