    Abstract: A system for X-ray analysis, includes: (a) an X-ray analysis assembly configured to (i) direct an X-ray beam to impinge on a surface of a sample, and (ii) receive fluorescence radiation excited from the sample in response to the impinged X-ray beam, (b) a target assembly including measurement targets: placed in an optical path between the X-ray analysis assembly and the sample, and configured to move between (i) one or more first positions in which one or more of the measurement targets are positioned in the X-ray beam, and (ii) one or more second positions in which the optical path is unobstructed by the target assembly, and (c) a processor, configured to control movement of the target assembly between the first and second positions, for alternately, (i) monitoring properties of the X-ray beam using the measurement targets, and (ii) performing the X-ray analysis at a measurement site of the sample.

    Abstract: A system includes first and second imaging assemblies, and a processor. The first imaging assembly is configured to produce a first image of a measurement site in a sample. The second imaging assembly is coupled with a measurement assembly and is configured to produce a second image of the measurement site. The processor is configured to: (i) perform, based on the first image, a first movement of the sample relative to the measurement assembly, (ii) perform, based on the second image, a second movement of the sample for aligning the sample with the measurement assembly, and (iii) control the measurement assembly to perform a measurement in the measurement site.
