The discussion centers on the dielectric function of lead (Pb) in the context of high-frequency regimes, particularly in relation to its electrical permittivity and its interaction with gamma rays in x-ray applications. Participants seek to clarify terminology and find relevant research materials and values.
Participants generally agree on the need for clarification regarding the terminology and the focus on lead's dielectric function, but there is no consensus on the availability of specific values or research materials.
Limitations include the lack of specific values for lead's dielectric function and the dependence on the definitions of terms like "PD" and "Pd." The discussion does not resolve the availability of research materials or the specifics of optical measurements.
Could you explain a bit more? What does PD stand for? Is Pd Palladium? By lead, do you mean the element?LUFER said:Summary:: reference values and graphs
Regarding the electrical permittivity of the metal in a high frequency regime, I cannot find research material related to the lead dielectric function (PD). I can't get the matatrial as values, I'll let you comment on that. I know that Pd can inhibit the amount of gamma rays in the x-ray case, but I would like to know about values related to that.

Right. So you want the dielectric function of lead or Pb (not Pd).LUFER said:This element I'm saying: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lead
