Effective atomic numbers of boron compounds obtained using Rayleigh to compton scattering intensity ratio

Özet

In this study, we measured the effective atomic numbers of some boron compounds (H4BNa, H3BO3, Na2B4O17H20, B4C, BN, NaCaB5O17H16, B2O3, Ca2B6O16H10, Zn2B6O14H6, TiB2, Fe2B, Ni3B, ZrB2, and LaBO3) by using 59.54 keV energy gamma rays emitted from an Am-241 radioactive source. Rayleigh and Compton scattering peaks were detected using a high purity germanium detector with a resolution of 182 eV at 5.9 keV. In addition, the effective atomic numbers of the boron compounds were theoretically calculated by using WinXCOM code. We concluded that the calibration curve obtained can be used for the qualitative analysis of compounds with effective atomic numbers in the range of 3.95 <= Z <= 54.15 because the experimental and theoretical effective atomic numbers were in very good agreement.
