Özet

In order to determine the effect of XAFS (X-ray absorption fine structure) on J(zeff) we have measured mu/p values of compounds, which are determined by the mixture rule or the independent atomic model. Also, we want to obtain both XAFS effect and non-applicability or applicability of mixture rule. The most crucial finding in this study is that measurement of the effective atomic number is not appropriate near the absorption edge and the effective atomic number is affected by near the absorption edge. The results obtained have been compared with theoretical values. Also, the objective of this study is to show that there is a term "J(zeff)" between effective atomic numbers and absorption jump factor. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
