Kr. Rao et al., Measurement of K X-ray intensity ratios in Ca, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu and Zn employing carbon and nitrogen projectiles - VTT method, EUR PHY J D, 15(3), 2001, pp. 283-286
A method is suggested to effect the self absorption correction in a differe
nt way to estimate the K X-ray intensity ratios particularly when heavy ion
s are used as projectiles. Employing this method, the K-beta/K-alpha intens
ity ratios are measured in some 3d shell elements by using Carbon and Nitro
gen ions as exciting agents. The K-beta/K-alpha intensity ratios thus obtai
ned in the present work are compared with the intensity ratios due to some
previous authors and also with Scofield theoretical values.
