A method and apparatus for low-background detection of simultaneously-emitted characteristic radiative emissions is presented. In some aspects, the characteristic radiative emissions, e.g. X-rays, are produced by deexcitation of exotic (excited) atoms in a sample to be identified. The characteristic X- rays can be used to identify the sample according to its unique identifying energy spectrum. In other aspects, a nuclear characteristic radiative emission is detected and used for the identification.

L'invention porte sur un procédé et un appareil de détection d'un faible fond de radioactivité d'émissions de rayonnements caractéristiques émises simultanément. Selon certaines variantes, les émissions de rayonnements caractéristiques, tels que des rayons X, sont produites par désexcitation des atomes exotiques (excités) dans un échantillon à identifier. Les rayons X caractéristiques peuvent être utilisés pour identifier l'échantillon en fonction de son spectre d'énergie à identification unique. Dans d'autres variantes, une émission de rayons nucléaires caractéristiques est détectée et utilisée pour l'identification.
