Calculated L-shell x-ray line intensities for proton and helium ion impact

Journal Article · · At. Data Nucl. Data Tables; (United States)
Theoretical L-shell X-ray line intensities have been calculated for proton and helium bombardment of atoms from nickel (Z/sub 2/ = 28) to curium (Z/sub 2/ = 96). The ionization cross sections for the three L subshells were obtained from the recent calculations by Cohen and Harrigan in the ECPSSR theory, which uses the plane-wave Born approximation (PWBA) with corrections for energy loss (E), Coulomb deflection (C), perturbed-stationary-state (PSS), and relativistic (R) effects. The fluorescence yields and Coster-Kronig transition probabilities were taken from M. O. Krause (Phys. Chem. Ref. Data 8, 307 (1979)) and the L-subshell emission rates from S. I. Salem, S. L. Panosian, and R. A. Krause (Atomic Data and Nuclear Data Tables 14, 91 (1974)). The line intensities Ll, L..cap alpha.., Leta, L..beta../sub 1/ to L..beta../sub 6/, L..beta../sub 9,10/, and L..gamma../sub 1/ to Lgg/sub 6/ are tabulated for selected ion energies from 0.2 to 10 MeV.
