HIGH-ENERGY K'(ALPHA) PLASMON SATELLITES IN X-RAY-EMISSION SPECTRA OFSCANDIUM AND TITANIUM COMPOUNDS

Using plasmon oscillation theory, the energy separation and relative i ntensity of the Kh satellites of the 2P(1/2) X-ray emission line of Sc Cl3, ScBr3, ScI3, ScF3, TiCl4, TiBr4, Til(4), TiF4, TiO2 and K2TiF6 ha ve been calculated. Our calculated values agree better with the experi mentally observed values than the values calculated by de Beer et al. from anion-polarization theory. This suggests that the possible origin of the K-alpha' satellites may be due to plasma oscillations in compo unds.
