Abstract

An algorithm has been developed that makes it possible to calculate the characteristics of X‑ray radiation: spectral resolution, mean energy, homogeneity coefficient, first and second half‑value layers. Analysis and comparison of the calculated characteristics of standard X‑ray radiation series L, N, W, and H with the corresponding characteristics given in DSTU ISO 4037‑1:2006 have been carried out. Based on the analysis and comparison, the applicability criterion of the algorithm has been determined — the value of the homogeneity coefficient.
