At present, macro X-ray fluorescence (MA-XRF) is one of the most essential analytical methods exploited by heritage science. By providing spatial distribution elemental maps, not only does it allow for material characterisation but also to understand, or

Study of the uniformity of aerosol filters by scanning MA‐XRF [PDF]
Energy‐dispersive X‐ray fluorescence (XRF) is an attractive analytical method to determine the level of air pollution by heavy metals. The concentration of the filter in ng/cm 2 is obtained by direct comparison of the net characteristic line intensity of an element with that of a thin film ...

When de Prony Met Leonardo: An Automatic Algorithm for Chemical Element Extraction from Macro X-Ray Fluorescence Data [PDF]
Macro X-ray Fluorescence (MA-XRF) scanning is an increasingly widely used technique for analytical imaging of paintings and other artworks. The datasets acquired must be processed to produce maps showing the distribution of the chemical elements that are

A new software for MA-XRF data visualization
Macro X-ray fluorescence (MA-XRF) analysis has experienced an exponential increase in usage during the last decade, especially in the field of conservation sciences. This was supported, in parts, by the unceasing development in robotics and electronics, being now possible to develop in-house systems at a much lower cost than commercially available ones.

MA‐XRF analysis of ancient silver coins minted in southern Italy
Abstract At the Museo Campano (Capua, Italy), eight double‐relief silver coins belonging to southern Italian poleis and dated between the end of the 5th century and the beginning of the 3rd century BC were analysed.
