The K x-ray spectra of molybdenum bombarded with 6.7-MeV/u UHe and 5.5-MeV/u /sup 16/O ions were recorded with an on-line curved-crystal spectrometer in the DuMond geometry. The instrumental resolution was approximately 10.5 eV. K 1L/sup n //sup = //sup 0,1,2,3/ and K 2L/sup n //sup = //sup 0,1/ principal and satellite lines were observed and resolved for the first time for an atom in the mid-Z region. The relative yields, energies, and linewidths were determined. The yields in the /sup 16/O-induced spectrum deviate significantly from the binomial distribution. The width and energy shifts indicate additional multiple M-shell ionization.
