Measurement of the L-3 to M-i, N-i and O-i subshells radiative transition probabilities of elements in the atomic number range 73 <= Z <= 92

摘要

The L-3 subshell x-ray intensity ratios for Ta, W, Re, Au, Hg, Tl, Pb, Th and U have been measured using an Am-241 radioisotope. Radiative transition probabilities of L-3 to M-i, N-i and O-i subshells were measured by using L-3 x-ray intensity ratios and L-i subshell fluorescence yields. For this measurement, the new equations were used in this study. The experimental results were compared with the relativistic Hartree-Slater values of Scofield.
