O. Simsek et al., Measurement of L shell fluorescence yields of seven elements in the atomicnumber range 79 <= Z <= 92 using photoionization, X-RAY SPECT, 28(2), 1999, pp. 91-93
L shell fluorescence yields were measured for Au, Hg, Tl, Pb, Bi, Th and U
using a Ge(Li) detector. The targets were excited using 59.5 keV gamma-rays
from a Am-241 radioactive source of strength 400 MBq. The results obtained
were compared with the theoretical values and other measured values. This
comparison shows that the present results are in good agreement with earlie
r experimental and theoretical results. Copyright (C) 1999 John Wiley & Son
