Kβ Satellites in Fluorescence Spectra of Some Mg and Al Compounds

Abstract
The high energy Kβ satellites βIII, βIV, βVII, βVII have been studied in fluorescence. Their in­tensities have been correctd for the self-absorption effect by measuring the intensities from Mg and A1 compounds having various absorption coefficients. By comparing the energy and intensity of the βIII βIV group with the calculations of the sudden approximation theory we have shown that this group is due to double-hole states. It is proposed that the α10 α11 group on the low energy side of the Kβ line arises from transitions between quadri-hole states. The line usually designated as Kβ' is thought to arise from a cross transition between the cation and anion in Mg, Al, and Si compounds involving the second period elements.
