2.3 Particle Induced X-Ray Emission PIXE
The previous section concentrated on X-ray fluorescence. Thissection discusses a different X-ray production technique thatcan lead to the development of 2-D/3-D elemental imaging.
Technique is based on the use of 2-6 MeV particle accelerators

Typically proton beams; protons transmit energy to the inner-shell electrons, ionize atoms with subsequent X-ray de-excitation

Sensitivity of PIXE
coun
ts
energy
PIXE shows superior peak-background sensitivity than electron beam induced or X-ray fluorescence methods. This reduces the samples size and improves sensitivity to 0.5 - 5 ppm value range.

Applications in Art & ArchaeologyGold jewelry artifacts, • pottery, • ancient record books, • painting material• writing material in Medieval & Renaissance manuscripts, • Dinosaur bone and eggshell fossil,• Human and Neanderthal man bone• obsidian tools, • human bones, • rock varnish.
Because of limited depth-profile of method mostly applications in surface studies!

Tracing Material OriginsThe red stone eyes of the statue of the Parthian goddess of love Ishtarwere originally thought by Louvrecurators to be made of colored glass
PIXE analysis showed that the inlays were rubies. AL2 SIO4 (F,OH)2+(Cr,Fe rich)

Where did the rubies come from?
Comparison of Fe versus Crcontent in Ishtar rubies withrubies from various provenances shows strong indication thatrubies did originate from Burma.Ancient trade connections between near and far east empires!

Systematic study of Ruby impurity concentrations with PIXE
Thailand and Burma are the mainsupplier of natural rubies. The color of Thailand ruby is violet to deep crimson, of Burma ruby from pinkish to blood red. PIXE analysis of 60 rubies indicated that lighter color of Burma rubies results from higher impurity concentration on Chromium or Vanadium.
