Dear all, I am attempting to simulate EDXRF efficiencies but I built a simpler setup to test and see if I can observe fluorescence effects. I only see x rays hitting the secondary molybdenum target and no flourescence which should be quite observable. I am attaching the source codes, any help is much appreciated.
Hello,
please try to study effect in $G4INSTALL/examples/extended/electromagnetic/TestEm5. There are many macro files, you may start from gammaSpectrum.mac and add extra UI command to enable fluorescence.
Possible commands:
/process/em/fluo true
/process/em/auger true
/process/em/deexcitationIgnoreCut true
VI
Yes, thanks! Flourescence works now.
But I decided to turn of DeexcitationIgnoreCut and another emParameter, Auger cascade as they were causing the incident Xrays to turn into many low energy electrons, which was undesirable.
