APPLICATIONS OF THE HIGH-RESOLUTION SCANNING PROTON MICROPROBE IN THE EARTH SCIENCES - AN OVERVIEW
The proton microprobe uses a focused beam of high-energy protons to generate X-rays in a sample that is to be analyzed. The major advantage of the proton microprobe as compared with the electron microprobe lies in its much lower X-ray background. This makes possible analyses at the 5-10-ppm concentr...
