Method Details

getabsEdgeNames

public java.lang.String[] getabsEdgeNames()

Returns list of tabulated atom absorption edge names

Returns:

The array of recognized atom names

getAtomAbsEdge

public double getAtomAbsEdge(java.lang.String theAtom,
java.lang.String theEdge)

Returns the requested absorption edge energy for theAtom

Parameters:

theAtom - The symbol for the atom, e.g. "AU" for gold

theEdge - K, L1, L2, L3, M1, M2, M3, M4, M5, N1, N2, N3, N4, N5

Returns:

The absorption edge energy in MeV, -1 if theAtom or theEdge are not tabulated

getAtomMevArray

public double[] getAtomMevArray(java.lang.String theAtom)

Returns the list of tabulated photon energies for theAtom

Parameters:

theAtom - The element symbol for the atom e.g. "AU" for gold

Returns:

An array of tabulated photon energies in MeV between 1KeV to 100GeV, null if incorrect formula

getAtomMuMass

public double getAtomMuMass(java.lang.String theAtom,
double theMeV,
java.lang.String muMassType)

Returns the requested cross section for theAtom at theMev

Parameters:

theAtom - The element symbol for the atom e.g. "AU" for gold

theMeV - The photon energy in MeV between 1KeV to 100GeV

muMassType - "TotAttn", "Raleigh", "Compton", "PhotoElectric", "PairProdN", "PairProdE"

Returns:

The cross-section in cm2/gm, null if incorrect formula
