NAME

       Xray::Absorption::Shaltout - Perl interface to the Shaltout tables

SYNOPSIS

          use Xray::Absorption;
          Xray::Absorption -> load("shaltout");

       See the documentation for Xray::Absorption for details.

DESCRIPTION

       This module is inherited by the Xray::Absorption module and provides access to the data contained in

         Update of photoelectric absorption coefficients in the tables of McMaster
         Abdallah Shaltout, Horst Ebel, and Robert Svagera
         X-Ray Spectrometry (2006) vol. 35, p. 52-56

       The data is contained in a database file called shaltout.db which is generated at  install  time  from  a
       flat       text       database       of      the      data      which      can      be      found      at
       <http://www.ifp.tuwien.ac.at/forschung/abdallah.shaltout/> as explained in the reference.

       The required Chemistry::Elements module is available from CPAN in the miscellaneous modules section.

EDGE AND LINE ENERGIES

       The Shaltout data resource includes all K, L, M, and N edges  but  does  not  provide  any  of  the  line
       energies.  An minimal set of line energies is imported from the McMaster data resource.

BUGS AND THINGS TO DO

       This module has not be tested sufficiently.
