摘要
The absolute intensities of the K alpha and K beta X-rays produced by 29 key electrons incident on a thick Ag target at forward angles in the range 0 degrees to 55 degrees relative to incident electrons have been measured. When corrections are made for attenuation within the target material, the results indicate that the K-shell X-rays are emitted isotropically. The experimental K-shell X-ray and bremsstrahlung production probability densities are compared to the results simulated by the Monte Carlo program, PENELOPE, and are found to be in good agreement.
