An analysis is presented of measured and calculated cross sections for inner-shell
ionization by electron impact. We describe the essentials of classical and semiclassical …

A method is described for computing total cross sections for the ionization of inner shells of
atoms and positive ions by impact of electrons and positrons with arbitrary energies. The …

The elemental composition of a solid sample can be determined by electron probe
microanalysis with or without the use of standards. The standardless algorithms are quite …

The relativistic distorted-wave Born approximation is used to calculate differential and total
cross sections for inner shell ionization of neutral atoms by electron and positron impact. The …

Absolute M-shell x-ray production cross sections have been measured and calculated for Au
and Bi for electron incident energies from close to the ionization threshold up to 38 keV. The …

Abstract We describe systematic Monte Carlo (MC) calculations of characteristic K and L x-
ray emission from thick samples bombarded by kiloelectronvolt electrons. The simulations …

Results from measurements of absolute K-shell ionization cross sections and L α x-ray
production cross sections of Ge by impact of electrons with kinetic energies ranging from the …

We report experimental and theoretical Bi L 1, L 2, and L 3 subshell ionization cross sections
by the impact of electrons with energies from the Bi L 3 ionization threshold to 100 keV. The …

Absolute K-shell ionization and L α and L β 1 x-ray production cross sections for Ga and As
have been measured for incident electrons in the energy range from 1.5 to 39 keV. The …

We have measured cross sections for the ionization of the K shell by electrons with energies
from the respective thresholds up to 100 keV, for Au and Bi. The experimental values are …
