Abstract
The construction and operation of a simple high-temperature X-ray absorptio n cell for potassium. vapor is described. The principle of "spectroscopic h eat pipe" is exploited to separate kapton windows. indispensable for good t ransmission in the low-energy region. from the hot and aggressive vapor. Hi gh-resolution spectrum of the K-edge region of atomic potassium reveals fin gerprints of multielectron photoexcitations. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
