Abstract

Total M X-ray cross sections for 12 elements in atomic range 70 less than or equal to Z less than or equal to 92 were measured at 5.96 keV Mn K X-ray photon energy. The average M shell fluorescence yields (<(omega)over Bar (M)) of these elements have also been observed using the presently measured cross section values and the theoretical M shell photoionisation cross section values.
