摘要： An x-ray based litho-density tool for measurement of formation surrounding a borehole is provided, the tool including at least an internal length comprising a sonde section, wherein said sonde section further comprises an x-ray source; at least one radiation measuring detector; at least one source monitoring detector; a plurality of sonde-dependent electronics; and a reference detector, wherein the reference detector is used to monitor the output of the x-ray source such that the reference detector's output effects corrections to the outputs of the detectors used to measure the density of the materials surrounding the borehole in order to correct for variations in the x-ray source output. Tool logic electronics, PSUs, and one or more detectors used to measure borehole standoff such that other detector responses may be compensated for tool standoff are also provided. Shielding, through-wiring, wear-pads that improve the efficacy and tool functionality are also described and claimed.
