Software toolkit for the education in x-ray fluorescence analysis

The issues that arise during the process of students training in the class of complicated physic methods of analysis are outlined. It is demonstrated that significant portion of those issues may be resolved by means of conventional universal software solutions specialized for the named area. One of such solutions called X-Energo is described with description of the main ideas of this package dealing with the possibilities of simulation of X-ray fluorescence spectrometers of different types and determination of analytical characteristics of element analysis of different stuff on such devices. X-Energo provides software realizations of the adequate, efficient, detailed models for different components and the whole X-ray fluorescence spectrometer as well as the diversified tools for data acquisition, processing and interpretation.
