The scenario involves using 30 keV electrons and a 100 \u00b5m thick Be window on a pure W sample to determine which of the provided elements (Mg, Na, W, Ca, Si) is the lightest that can be detected. The goal is to understand the limitations imposed by the electron energy and window material on the detection of lighter elements."}
