Abstract
The K alpha and K beta x-ray fluorescence cross sections have been measured for elements in the range 44 less than or equal to Z less than or equal to 68 at an excitation energy of 59.5-keV gamma ray from Am-241 radioisotope with a Si(Li) detector. A reasonable agreement is found between the present experimental results and the theoretically calculated values based on phot oionization cross sections by Scofield using Hartree-Slater and Hartree-Foc k central potential theory.
