Abstract

In this study, Au-Lα characteristic X-rays are employed to excite K shell electrons of elements Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, and Zn. A reflection geometry setup is utilized, and counts are recorded using a Si-PIN detector with enough time for a statistical standard deviation of 10 %. From the spectra of counts versus energy, fluorescence parameters, including K shell fluorescence yield, cross section, intensity ratio, and K to L vacancy transfer probability are computed. These values are then compared with existing experimental and theoretical data to evaluate their accuracy and consistency.
