Abstract

At the new 3 MV Tandetron accelerator of the LABEC laboratory of INFN in Florence, an external beam facility fully dedicated to measurements of elemental composition of atmospheric aerosol has been installed. The experimental set-up hitherto used for this kind of applications has been upgraded with the introduction of a silicon drift detector and of a beam current monitor system based on the backscattering of protons on the extraction window. The new facility will be presented, together with some methodological results obtained so far for the analysis of airborne particulate matter samples collected on quartz fiber filters.
