Abstract

In an earlier paper1 it was found that to a good approximation, the efficiency of collection of electrons that had lost energy due to an inner shell excitation could be written as where σE was the total excitation cross-section and σE(θ, Δ) was the integral cross-section for scattering within an angle θ and with an energy loss up to an energy Δ from the excitation edge, EE. We then obtained: where , with P being the momentum of the incident electron of velocity v. The parameter r was due to the assumption that d2σ/dEdΩ∞E−r for energy loss E. In reference 1 it was assumed that r was a constant.
