The LIII subshell photoelectric cross section, jump ratio, jump factor, and Davisson–Kirchner ratio of iridium have been determined by mass attenuation coefficients. The measurements have been performed using the X-ray attenuation method in narrow beam geometry. The obtained results have been compared with the tabulated values of XCOM (Berger et al. XCOM: Photon cross section database (version 1.3). NIST. Available at http://physics.nist.gov/xcom . 2005) and FFAST (Chantler et al. X-ray form factor, attenuation and scattering tables (version 2.1). NIST. Available at http://physics.nist.gov/ffast . 2005).

The effective atomic numbers and electron densities for the pure elemental forms of gadolinium (Gd), dysprosium (Dy), erbium (Er), and ytterbium (Yb), and some of their selected complexes, were obtained from the measured total mass attenuation coefficients at 13.92, 17.75, 20.78, 26.34, and 59.54 keV photon energies using a high-resolution Si(Li) detector by adopting transmission geometry. The measured results were compared with two different theoretical results. Within experimental deviations, our data are in good agreement with the theoretical values. The obtained parameters were also interpreted with some selected chemical parameters.
