L X-ray energy shifts and intensity ratios in tantalum with C and N ions — multiple vacancies in M, N and O shells

The energy shifts and intensity ratios of different L X-ray components in tantalum element due to 10 MeV carbon and 12 MeV nitrogen ions are estimated. From the observed energy shifts, the possible number of simultaneous vacancies in M shell are estimated. A comparison of Lα/Lβ2.15, Lβ1/Lγ1 and Lγ2....

Summary:The energy shifts and intensity ratios of different L X-ray components in tantalum element due to 10 MeV carbon and 12 MeV nitrogen ions are estimated. From the observed energy shifts, the possible number of simultaneous vacancies in M shell are estimated. A comparison of Lα/Lβ2.15, Lβ1/Lγ1 and Lγ2.3/Lγ4.4 with the ratios due to Scofield theoretical transition rates indicate that the number of multiple vacancies in N shell are higher than the vacancies in M and O shell. Employing Larkin’s statistical scaling procedure, the number of possible multiple vacancies in N and O shells are estimated quantitatively.
