Abstract

A semi-automated procedure based on open-source utilities was designed and built to analyze spectra collected at a synchrotron accelerator using the μ-XRF technique. The software (RICOCHET) has a fast, efficient and user-friendly design aimed at performing online analysis. A few examples of its application using recent μ-XRF data from the SUL-X beamline at ANKA Synchrotron Facility (KIT) are presented.
