X-Ray WWW Server
Welcome to the X-Ray World Wide Web Server!
This server has been operational since April 1994.
It is running on a DECStation 5100 which
has been made available by the
Department of Physics at
Uppsala University in Sweden.
It is the repository of the COREX bibliography and database,
the Henke atomic scattering factors, and other information
of interest to x-ray spectroscopists. It provides links to additional
locations for information about x-ray research, including
conferences,
synchrotron radiation laboratories, and other
x-ray related Web or FTP sites. You can view the
statistics
for operation of this server.

Getting access to the contents of the server
-
The COREX Database
- A database of atomic and molecular core edge
excitation oscillator strengths, as described by
A.P. Hitchcock and D.C. Mancini, in Journal of Electron Spectroscopy
and Related Phenomena, Vol. 67, No. 1 (1994). You may display
the oscillator strengths or download the files for use. Contents are
compiled and Copyright © 1993, 1994 by A.P. Hitchcock and D.C. Mancini,
all rights reserved.
-
The COREX Bibliographies
- Bibliographies and indices for the COREX Database in a variety of
formats. You can perform simple searches on the bibliography, and view
or download the entries that match your query.
-
The Henke X-ray Scattering Factors
- The x-ray scattering factors f1 and f2 as published by
B. L. Henke, E. M. Gullikson, and J. C. Davis, in Atomic Data and
Nuclear Data Tables, Vol. 54, No. 2 (1993). It is also
accessible via a Periodic
Table interface.
-
X-ray Emission Lines
- The x-ray emission line energies as published by
J. A. Bearden, in "X-Ray Wavelengths," Rev. Mod. Phys.
39, (1967) p.78.
-
Electron Binding Energies
- The electron binding energies of the elements in their
natural form, as compiled by Gwyn Williams from published sources.
-
The Bell Jar electronic issue no. 2 (October 1994)
- This article,
Generating X-Rays With Receiving Tubes,
describes the experiments of Bob Templeman of
Chicago IL, condensed from material originally presented in
Vol. 3, Nos. 1 & 2 (Winter & Spring 1994) of the Bell Jar.
Old TV tubes are used as cold cathode x-ray emitters in a simple
apparatus developed by Bob Templeman. With some beam tubes, the
intensity is adequate to make x-ray photographs of objects using
standard films.
- Historical Information about X-Rays
- Currently, includes a list of
Nobel Prizes awarded for
research using x-rays.
