ABSTRACT

The tabulated K-edge jump values are from the curve of Figure 1, which shows the jump factors listed in McMaster, W. H., Kerr del Grande, N., Mallett, J. H., and Hubbell, J. H., Compilation of X-ray Cross Sections, Report UCRL-50174, Sect II, Rev. 1, Lawrence Radiation Laboratory, University of California, Livermore, May 1969. The L-edge jump factors were obtained in a similar fashion. Errors of 5 to 10% may be present. <italic>K</italic>-edge jump factor. https://s3-euw1-ap-pe-df-pch-content-public-p.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/9780203742433/53e9912e-dfc3-42b1-91b1-4eaf447a0f76/content/fig4_1.tif"/> <italic>K</italic>-Edge Jump Factor.
