Title: Comment on the comparison of observed two-electron--one-photon transition energies with calculated values

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. Lett.; (United States)

We describe a method for comparing observed two-electron--one-photon transition energies with theoretical values in order to determine the L-shell vacancy configuration at the time of x-ray emission. This method reduces the dependence on the particular computer code used in the calculation. Present calculations indicate degree of L-shell ionization in the Fe and Ni data of Woelfli et al. than that found by previous investigators.
