Work needed

No disrespect meant here, but this entry needs significant work. The absence of the actual mechanics of EDS is glaring. The grammar is not too good. The entry is way too focused on a self-described flawed subset of EDS technology, the microcalorimeter. I'm working on revisions; they're coming soon. 21:50, 13 December 2006 (UTC) sstolper

It's still awful, please continue to contribute. I will try to write the basic outline of an EDS system, assitance would be appreciated. --Blechnic (talk) 04:15, 17 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Also needs history of the technique. Who and when?? Mountainlogic (talk) 19:01, 3 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

As a couple of other users have pointed out, this is not an EDS spectrum. It is, in fact, labeled as the an x-ray spectrum of a supernova. Probably a self-emitter. That leaves it out of the realm of things that emit x-rays after being bombarded with a beam of x-rays or of high energy particles, so let's leave it out of the article. --Blechnic (talk) 02:22, 17 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Vandalism

Article is in an asian language (30.06.2013), albeit on the english wikipedia. Sorry that I don't change it back to an earlier version myself, I'm a newbie at editing and just want to point out the problem to an experienced user. Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.171.164.156 (talk) 18:40, 30 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Name(s)

"electron dispersion spectroscopy"

Just wondering if anyone calls this "electron dispersion spectroscopy", or if it's just an online misprint/error. —DIV (137.111.165.22 (talk) 06:24, 17 November 2013 (UTC))[reply]

"An electron from an outer, higher-energy shell then fills the hole, and the difference in energy between the higher-energy shell and the lower energy shell may be released in the form of an X-ray." Please somebody check it. I think that lower-energy shells are the outermost... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.70.242.51 (talk) 16:20, 19 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
