We report on the investigation of the photon energy dependence of double 1s photoionization of light atoms and compare the cross sections for hollow atom and He-like ion production. Measurements of the Kα hypersatellite x-ray spectra of Mg, Al, and Si were carried out using the Fribourg high-resolution x-ray spectrometer installed at the ID21 and ID26 beam lines at the ESRF. The...

This paper reports on the investigation of the double K-shell ionization of metallic aluminum induced by photon and electron impact. The experimental method consisted to measure the Kα hypersatellite spectra resulting from the radiative decay of double 1s vacancy states by means of high-resolution x-ray spectroscopy using a Bragg-type von Hamos crystal spectrometer....

We report on the photon energy dependence of the K-shell double photoionization (DPI) of Mg, Al, and Si. The DPI cross sections were derived from high-resolution measurements of x-ray spectra following the radiative decay of the K-shell double vacancy states. Our data evince the relative importance of the final-state electron- electron interaction to the DPI. By comparing the double-to-single...

High-resolution x-ray measurements were performed with a von Hamos-type bent crystal spectrometer using for the detection of the diffracted photons either a back- illuminated charge-coupled device (CCD) camera or a front-illuminated one. For each CCD the main x-ray emission lines (e.g., Kα, Kβ, Lα, and Lβ) of a variety of elements were measured in order to probe...

We demonstrate that in order to interpret the x-ray satellite structure of Pd Lα1,2(L₃M4,5) transitions excited by fast O ions, which was measured using a high-resolution von Hamos crystal spectrometer, the vacancy rearrangement processes, taking place prior to the x-ray emission, have to be taken into account. The measured spectra were compared with the predictions...

X-ray resonant Raman scattering (RRS) spectra of Al, Al₂O₃, Si, and SiO₂ were measured at the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility, using a high-resolution Bragg-type curved crystal spectrometer. The x-ray RRS spectra were collected at several beam energies tuned below the 1s absorption thresholds of Al and Si. Differences in the spectral features between the elemental samples and...

We report on the first high-resolution measurements of the K x-ray resonant Raman scattering (RRS) in Si. The measured x-ray RRS spectra, interpreted using the Kramers-Heisenberg approach, revealed spectral features corresponding to electronic excitations to the conduction and valence bands in silicon. The total cross sections for the x-ray RRS at the 1s absorption edge and the ...

High-resolution measurements of the resonant X-ray Raman scattering (RRS) of Al and Si and their oxides were performed at the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF) in Grenoble, France, using a von Hamos Bragg-type curved crystal spectrometer. To probe the influence of chemical effects on the RRS X-ray spectra, Al₂O₃ and SiO₂ samples were also investigated. The X-ray RRS spectra...

K-X-ray spectra of Zr, Nb, Mo and Pd targets bombarded with 250 MeV carbon and 360 MeV oxygen ions are studied with high resolution diffraction spectrometry. Relative yields and natural widths of the Khα1,2 hypersatellite lines are determined and compared with those of the diagram lines. The widths of Khα1,2 lines are compared with the new ...
