Thick target total bremsstrahlung spectra of lead compounds in the photon energy region 1-10keV by Sr beta particles.

Total bremsstrahlung spectral photon distribution generated in thick targets of lead compounds Pb(CHCOO)·3HO, Pb(NO) and PbCl by Sr beta particles has been investigated theoretically and experimentally in the photon energy region 1-10keV. The experimental results are compared with the theoretical models describing ordinary bremsstrahlung and the theoretical model which includes polarization bremsstrahlung into ordinary bremsstrahlung, in stripped approximation. It is observed that the experimental results show better agreement with the model which describes bremsstrahlung in stripped approximation in the energy range 3-10keV.
