Atomic photoelectric effect near threshold edges

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. A; (United States)
Total photon attenuation coefficients near absorption edges are determined in certain suitable elements and compounds. Photoelectric cross sections for elements are deduced from these by subtracting the coherent and incoherent scattering cross sections as well as other elemental cross sections in the cases of compounds. Certain deviations are observed on comparison with the available theoretical and experimental compilations. The I/sub L//sub ..cap alpha..//Il x-ray intensity ratio measured by photon excitation near threshold is found to agree better with the theory than the other available experimental data.
