Z-DEPENDENCES IN THE REORGANIZATION OF INNER-SHELL IONIZED ATOMS

Relative abundances of differently charged ions were calculated follow ing inner-shell ionization. The charge distributions have been compute d as a function of the atomic number. Monte Carlo method has been used to simulate the vacancy cascades in atoms of atomic number 7 less-tha n-or-equal-to Z less-than-or-equal-to 60. The calculations have been m ade by tracing successive radiative and nonradiative transitions and e lectron shake off. Input data have been calculated from MCDF and DFS w ave functions. It has been found that the effects of electron shake of f and energy forbidden Auger transitions play an essential role in the cascade development. Results are compared with experiments and some t heoretical values from literature.
