Target atomic number dependence of simultaneous K-shell and L-shell ionization of projectile heavy ions
Abstract
High resolution measurements are made for K α and K β X-rays from 33 MeV Ar ions passing through various foil targets. The average L-vacancy fraction at the K α X-ray emission, the intensity ratio of the K α hypersatellites relative to the K α satellites and that of K β satellites relative to the K α ones are obtained as a function of the atomic number of the targets, Z2. All of them show an oscillatory dependence on Z2 and discussions are made about this dependence by comparison with the previous work, particularly with the results of Watson et al. for 64 MeV S ions.
