A schematic of the beam diameter measurement using transmitted X-rays old and new methods

Caption

X-ray beam diameter can be calculated more accurately with the new evaluation method than with conventional methods used previously. The new method shows the same X-ray beam diameter, which remained consistent during this test, when using different wires with variable thickness.
