Abstract
The XRF beamline at the VEPP-3 (Budker INP, Novosibirsk, Russia) storage ri ng was modified for the performance of scanning analysis. A description and parameters of this facility are presented in the Current paper. The initia l results of testing of scanning analysis of bottom sediments from Lake Bai kal are also presented, A spatial resolution of the scanning analysis is 0. 1-1 mm which corresponds to 2-50 years of resolution. Such a scanning analy sis of lake sediments provides high quality data as a requirement for paleo climate reconstructions. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved .
