X-ray mass attenuation coefficients for polycrystalline samples of copper have been measured with a high-precision energy-dispersive method. Estimates of the scattering contributions to the attenuation coefficients are made. The photoelectric coefficients deduced from the experimental results are compared with theoretical calculations using screened hydrogen-like eigenfunctions as well as more rigorous relativistic wavefunctions.
