Abstract
The detection efficiency and response function of a Si(Li) detector el ement for the SIXA spectrometer have been determined in the 500 eV to 5 keV energy range using synchrotron radiation emitted at a bending ma gnet of the electron storage ring BESSY, which is a primary radiation standard. The agreement between the measured spectrum and the model ca lculation is better than 2%.
