HP 42S/DM42/Free42: X-Ray Spectrometric Calculations
Introduction
The program XRAY contains a menu of several calculations involving flat crystal spectronomers, which include:
[ >EW ]: Energy wavelength conversion, where E * λ = 12.39852. E = energy and λ = wavelength
[ →N ]: Store n, where n is the nth crystal. You can calculate for any crystal and have any number of crystals for this program.
[ANGLE]: Calculates the double diffraction angle, in degrees, of any crystal given n, E, and λ by using the Bragg Equation:
θ = 2 * asin( (12.39852 * n) / (E * d) )
where d = the spacing of the crystal planes
You will be prompted for E and d each time.
[E KEV]: Uses the Bragg Equation to calculate energy (E), given n, d, and θ. You will be prompted for d and θ each time.
[ENRGY]: Calculates the energy resolving power (δ) at an X-ray given its line energy (E), double refraction angle (θ), and angular divergence of the collimator (δ).
ENERGY = (E * 1000 * δ° * π / 180) / tan θ
Enter δ in degrees.

Example
For a two-crystal spectrometer with properties:
Crystal 1 (n = 1): 6.285 Å (angstrom) (d)
Crystal 2 (n = 2): 7.285 Å
Angular divergence: 0.31° (δ)
An M_α wave with wavelength 3.415 Å enters the system. Find the energy of this M_α wave and the double refraction angle for each crystal. Also was the energy-resolving power of each of the crystals.
