Target centred coupled channel calculations for L_Isubshell X-ray production cross sections by heavy ions

Abstract

The semiclassical coupled channel impact parameter model in conjunction with the independent electron model and a target centred atomic orbital expansion has been applied to calculate the Lgamma 2,3 X-ray production cross sections for 1H, 7Li, 14N, and 28Si ions on Yb with projectile energy range 0.5-3.0 MeV amu-1. In comparison to previous LI subshell ionization calculations the work shows improvement in the agreement between theory and experimental data.
