Correction of beam hardening in X-ray radiograms

Correction of beam hardening in X-ray radiograms

The intensity of a monochromatic X-ray beam decreases exponentially with the distance it has traveled inside a material; this behavior is commonly referred to as Beer-Lambert's law. Knowledge of the material-specific attenuation coefficient μ allows us to determine the thickness of a sample from the intensity decrease the beam has …
