Ionization cross sections of the Au L subshells by electron impact from the L3 threshold to 100 keV
2018 - BARROS, SUELEN F.; VANIN, VITO R.; MAIDANA, NORA L.; MARTINS, MARCOS N.; GARCIA-ALVAREZ, JUAN A.; SANTOS, OSVALDO C.B.; RODRIGUES, CLEBER L.; KOSKINAS, MARINA F.; FERNANDEZ-VAREA, JOSE M.
We measured the cross sections for Au Lα, Lβ, Lγ, Lℓ and Lη x-ray production by the impact of electrons with energies from the L3 threshold to 100 keV using a thin Au film whose mass thickness was determined by Rutherford Backscattering Spectrometry. The x-ray spectra were acquired with a Si drift detector, which allowed to separate the components of the Lγ multiplet lines. The measured Lα, Lβ, ${\rm{L}}{\gamma }_{1}$, L${\gamma }_{\mathrm{2,3,6}}$, ${\rm{L}}{\gamma }_{\mathrm{4,4}^{\prime} }$, ${\rm{L}}{\gamma }_{5}$, ${\rm{L}}{\ell }$ and Lη x-ray production cross sections were then employed to derive Au L1, L2 and L3 subshell ionization cross sections with relative uncertainties of 8%, 7% and 7%, respectively; these figures include the uncertainties in the atomic relaxation parameters. The correction for the increase in electron path length inside the Au film was estimated by means of Monte Carlo simulations. The experimental ionization cross sections are about 10% above the state-of-the-art distorted-wave calculations.
Measurement of doubly differential electron bremsstrahlung cross sections at the end point (tip) for C, Al, Te, Ta and Au
2017 - GARCIA-ALVAREZ, J.A.; FERNANDEZ-VAREA, J.M.; VANIN, V.R.; SANTOS, O.C.B.; BARROS, S.F.; MALAFRONTE, A.A.; RODRIGUES, C.L.; MARTINS, M.N.; KOSKINAS, M.F.; MAIDANA, N.L.
We have used the low-energy beam line of the São Paulo Microtron accelerator to study the maximum energy transfer point (tip) of electron–atom bremsstrahlung spectra for C, Al, Te, Ta and Au. Absolute cross sections differential in energy and angle of the emitted photon were measured for various electron kinetic energies between 20 and 100 keV, and photon emission angles of 35◦, 90◦ and 131◦. The bremsstrahlung spectra were collected with three HPGe detectors and their response functions were evaluated analytically. Rutherford backscattering spectrometry allowed us to obtain the thicknesses of the targets with good accuracy. We propose a simple model for the tip region of the bremsstrahlung spectrum emitted at a given angle, whose adjustable parameters are the mean energy of the incident beam and its spread as well as an amplitude. The model was fitted simultaneously to the pulse-height distributions recorded at the three angles, determining the doubly differential cross sections from the corresponding amplitudes. The measured values have uncertainties between 3% and 13%. The agreement of the experimental results with the theoretical partial-wave calculations of Pratt and co-workers depends on the analyzed element and angle but is generally satisfactory. In the case of Al and Au, the uncertainty attributed to the theory is probably overestimated.
