Abstract

A method has been investigated which allows calculations of the absorption correction factors in the energy range 1.0–5.0 keV using ⁵⁵Fe excitation source. From the experimentally‐measured absorption factors between 6.0 and 20.0 keV using ¹⁰⁹Cd excitation source, the coefficients at lower energies with the associated absorption jumps are generated through an iterative procedure.
