Abstract
Doubly differential cross sections have been measured for the production of 10-70-keV $\ensuremath{\delta}$ electrons and \ensuremath{\sim}10-50-keV continuum x rays generated in collisions between 65-MeV nickel ions and nickel foil targets. The data on $\ensuremath{\delta}$ electrons have been used to calculate corresponding yields of secondary-electron bremsstrahlung (SEB) including retardation effects. Magnitude, energy, and angular dependence of resulting SEB yields are discussed in detail. It is concluded that SEB contributions do not dominate experimental continuous x-ray spectra.
