Abstract

Passage of a ribbon X-ray photon beam through amorphous materials is investigated by solving a kinetic equation in one-group approximation. It is shown that decrease in the beam thickness leads to decreased background level consisting of scattered photons. The study of the beam passage through a polycapillary detector showed that there is a possibility to effectively detect X-ray photons with great precision.
