Abstract

The $K$-shell fluorescence yield has been calculated with the Hartree-Fock-Slater model for all multiply ionized states of neon. These results are compared with the recently measured average $K$-shell fluorescence yield for 30-MeV ${\mathrm{O}}^{7+}$ collisions with Ne. It is also shown that the commonly used statistical scaling procedure leads to significant errors for neon.
