Abstract
High energy resolution X-ray emission spectroscopy was used to study the multiple ionization satellites in the K X-ray spectra of titanium induced by target irradiation with MeV alpha particles. Beam energies of 3–5 MeV were used to explore the beam energy dependence. In addition, several titanium binary oxides excited with 5 MeV beam were measured to study also the chemical bonding effects on the multiple ionization satellites. Energy shifts and intensities of the satellites corresponding to one and two L-shell vacancies were determined from the measured spectra. The results will be used to refine the existing experimental alpha particle induced multiple ionization satellite database which is needed to improve the accuracy of PIXE analysis using alpha particle beams, including the PIXE mode of the Mars alpha particle X-ray spectrometers.
