New Kα satellites of 30Zn following electron bombardment
The α-region of the electron excited K-X-ray emission spectrum of 30Zn, registered with the help of 20 and 40 cm curved muscovite mica crystal spectrographs of the transmission (Cauchois) type, has been microphotographically investigated.Four new high frequency satellites at 1415.2, 1411.4, 1401.7, and 1408.5 xu have been observed. On the basis of Relativistic Dirac–Fock (RDF) energy calculations for different initial and final configurations, the first three have been assigned to specific transitions (1s)−1(2p)−n → (2p)−n−1, with n = 3, 4, 5, respectively. However, the fourth one has been only tentatively assigned to the transition (1s)−1(2s)−1(2p)−4 → (2s)−1(2p)−5, since RDF calculations for these configurations were not available.The presence of two other satellites, reported earlier by Edamoto, has been confirmed. These have been observed at 1428.7 and 1424.4 xu and assigned for the first time to the transitions (1s)−1(2p)−n → (2p)−n−1 with n = 1 and 2, respectively.
