Rm. Agrawal et Sn. Jha, RELATIVE INTENSITIES OF L-ALPHA-1, L-BETA-1 AND L-BETA-2, 3, 15 LINESOF GOLD - PHOTOEXCITATION WITH THE CONTINUUM IN AND NEAR THE THRESHOLD REGION, X-ray spectrometry, 23(2), 1994, pp. 75-78
Variations of the relative intensities of the Lalpha1, Lbeta1 and Lbet
a2,3,15 lines of gold on their photoexcitation with the continua of x-
ray tubes with W and Mo targets were measured at operating voltages fr
om 15 to 20 kV. The standard procedure for calculating the fluorescenc
e intensity of an x-ray line excited by a polychromatic x-ray beam was
suitably modified to calculate the relative intensities of these line
s. The factors responsible for the differences between the experimenta
l and calculated values are discussed.
