Progress in the Development of the Atmospheric Electron-induced X-Ray Spectrometer (AEXS) with High Spatial Resolution for Surface Elemental Analysis from Samples in Planetary Atmosphere
Abstract
The status of the development of the AEXS instrument using a focused beam of energetic electrons for excitation of characteristic XRF from samples in planetary atmosphere rapidly (<1 min per resolved spectrum) with variable and high (mm to cm) spatial resolution is described.
