Spectra of K x rays emitted from a variety of solid targets (atomic number Z{sub 2}=17-32) under bombardment by fast heavy ions (atomic number Z{sub 1}=6-83) at 2.5-25 MeV/amu were measured in high resolution using a curved crystal spectrometer. The spectra were analyzed in order to examine the dependence of K{alpha} x-ray satellite structure on the Geometrical Model's universal variable X{sub n}. Scaling rules were established for the apparent average L-shell spectator vacancy fraction at the time of K{alpha} x-ray emission, the satellite peak centroids, and the satellite peak widths.
