  • Abstract
    In this paper a technical solution to the problem of performing spectral analysis of roentgendiagnostic X-ray beams-and its constraints-will be described. With this method, X-ray spectra are reconstructed starting from the beam scattered, by a suitable target, inside a miniaturized Compton Selection Chamber. Experimental results will be shown and compared with the spectra acquired in a more direct (but not practical for on-field measurements) way
