Abstract

This paper extends earlier work on the shift on the Kα-fluorescence line of sulphur, which is due to the chemical environment of the atom, and shows that similar good agreement between theory and experiment is also found for Si and Al. On the other hand the Kβ-transitions, which directly involve the lectrons engaged in chemical bonding, cannot properly be described by any such monocentric model. Finally the chemical shift of the Kα line of an atom is shown to depend very strongly on the polarity of the bonds to this atom, and also on the d-character of the bonding.
