Abstract
Spectra of resonance transition X-rays (RTR) generated in a periodical target composed of 9 Sn foils 11 mu m in thickness spaced by 52 mu m have been measured. They are shown to be significantly narrowed due to the influence of the K-shell photoabsorption edge. The ratio between intensities of RTR and bremsstrahlung is discussed. In the X-ray spect ra measured using an equivalent continuous 100 mu m Sn target the dens ity effect is masked by the contribution of the transition radiation g enerated on the two surfaces.
