X-ray fluorescence (XRF) is a non-destructive analytical technique used to determine the elemental composition of materials by measuring the fluorescent X-rays emitted from a sample when it is excited by an X-ray source. This technique is crucial in the analysis of artifacts, including glasswork from ancient Rome, allowing researchers to identify the chemical elements present in the glass and understand its production techniques and historical context.
congrats on reading the definition of X-ray fluorescence. now let's actually learn it.
