Abstract: | In this paper, the effect of crystal anisotropy on absorption of x-radiation is investigated. A formula is obtained describing the absorption of x-radiation by a biaxial crystal. Crystal optic effects are considered in the x-ray region of the spectrum. A mechanism is proposed for the dependence of the fine structure of x-ray absorption on the sample thickness in an anisotropic crystal. The effect of the crystal anisotropy on the x-ray fluorescence is investigated in the case of a uniaxial crystal.Scientific-Research Institute of Physics, Rostov State University.
