Abstract
A Philips fluorescence spectrometer was employed to search for the x-ray Raman line reported by Das Gupta. The search was made on graphite, beryllium, LiF, and boron nitride both under the original conditions employed by Das Gupta on graphite and under the conditions in which Bragg reflections occur. No x-ray Raman line was seen in spite of the increased sensitivity of our scintillation counting vis à vis the film detection employed by Das Gupta.
