The Determination of M Shell Average Fluorescence Parameters From 70Yb to 92U and of Hg, Pb and Bi Compounds Using 5.96 keV Photons
Abstract
In this study, the empirical average M
shell fluorescence yields were calculated from 70Yb to 92U.
These obtained values will supply more experimental data for theoretical
estimations of atomic structure calculations and spectroscopic analysis which
is used for material characterization.
And also, chemical effects on average M-shell fluorescence yields for Hg, Pb, and Bi compounds were
determined using M X-ray production
cross-sections at 5.96 keV photon energy. The samples were irradiated using a
1.85 GBq 55Fe radioactive source.
M X-rays emitted by samples
were counted using a multi-channel analyzer with a Ultra-LEGe detector. The
measured experimental values have been compared with theoretically and
empirically (only for M-shell average fluorescence yields) calculated values of
pure elements.
