Abstract

Computer Program for obtaining theoretical X-ray Satellite Spectrum

Highlights

  • In an X-ray tube, X-rays are generated by electron impact on a target and the radiation consists of both the continuous Xrays and characteristic X-rays

  • The spectral lines of the characteristic spectra resulting from transitions between atomic states, involving single vacancy are called diagram lines, because energy of such lines can be expressed as the difference of two terms in the single vacancy energy level attention of many workers and various theories have been put forward from time to time

  • Each spectral line corresponding to a transition is taken as a Gaussian line

Summary

Introduction

In an X-ray tube, X-rays are generated by electron impact on a target and the radiation consists of both the continuous Xrays and characteristic X-rays. We have undertaken research to find the origin of some particular unexplained X-ray satellites, i.e., to assign diagram lines are generally found to be accompanied by groups of lines of slightly different energies and usually smaller intensities. The energies of these lines do not correspond to the energy difference between any two states of the normal single vacancy energy level diagram of the element concerned. To obtain theoretical spectrum we calculate the energies of the different electronic transitions which are allowed between the initial and final double vacancy states and the relative intensities of such transitions. For a particular value of , the width of spectrum line at half of the maximum intensity is theoretically equal to 2.355
