Is radiation an xray?

No, they can't. X-rays, at least the high energy ones, are a form of ionizing radiation. Ionizing radiation can break chemical bonds, but it cannot activate a substance. That is, X-rays cannot make a substance radioactive. Only particulate radiation can "induce" radioactivity, and that will happen according to the type of particulate radiation and the material being bombarded. Cosmic rays are a form of electromagnetic radiation even more energetic than X-rays, and even they cannot make a substance radioactive. Because X-rays cannot make a substance radioactive, they cannot make a site, a room, or an area of any kind radioactive.


How can you obtain Al-k alpha radiation?

K alpha and L alpha are secondary radiation lines that are peculiar to a given element bombarded with radiation (Xray tube). When you radiate an element, it gives off secondary radiation measured as K alpha and L alpha lines. This secondary radiation is given off at an angle peculiar to the element being radiated. Hence one is able to analyse a mineral ore sample for wanted elements by setting up radiation detectors at the various angles peculiar to the elements being sort. This process is used in auto-assay equipment used by mining companies wanting to reduce the time it takes to analyse samples chemically.
