Abstract

Measurements of x-ray line intensities following the decay of atomic vacancies produced in the L3 subshell of dysprosium and holmium have been carried out. A filtered x-ray generator beam obtained by filters based on the K-edges of suitable elements combined with low-Z element filters has been used to selectively ionize the L3 subshells. Fluorescence yields ω3 and partial radiative width ratios have been extracted and compared with previous measurements and with theoretical and/or semi-empirical values from the literature. An overall good agreement has been obtained. The possibility of extending these measurements to other subshells is briefly outlined.
