Abstract
Very extensive multiconfiguration Dirac–Fock calculations with the inclusion of the transverse (Breit) interaction and QED corrections have been carried out on thorium to elucidate the structure of various satellite (additional vacancies in N and/or O shells) and hypersatellite (additional vacancies in M or M and N shells) M α 1 , 2 ( M 5 N 6 , 7 ) and M β 1 ( M 4 N 6 ) lines in its X-ray spectra. For each type of lines two theoretical spectra have been synthesized: one being a sum of the Lorentzian natural line shapes and the other one being a convolution of the sum of the Lorentzian natural line shapes with the Gaussian instrumental response. The obtained theoretical results will be very helpful in reliable and quantitative interpretation of various experimental M-X-ray spectra of thorium target bombarded by different light and heavy projectiles (such as O and Ne ions).
