Abstrakt: Various solutions for accurate and quantitative analysis of bulk materials by PIXE are presented. The measurements are made in a non vacuum geometry (samples are irradiated at atmospheric pressure after the incident proton beam has crossed a thin aluminium foil) or in a vacuum chamber. Gadgets for the monitoring of the proton beam, for the easy change and the accurate positioning of the target samples, for the corrections of matrix effects, for the handling of very small and irregular samples, for the analysis of liquids and for the measurement of thick layers are discussed.
