Abstract:
X-ray production differential cross sections induced by C and Si ions with energies from 1MeV/u down to 0.25MeV/u, produced by the CMAM 5MV tandem accelerator, have been measured for thin targets of Ti, Fe, Zn, Nb, Ru and Ta in a direct way. X-rays have been detected by a fully characterized silicon drift diode and beam currents have been measured by a system of two Faraday cups. Measured cross sections agree in general with previously published results. The ECPSSR theory with the united atoms correction gives absolute values close to the experimental ones for all the studied elements excited by C ions and for Ta, Nb and Ru excited by Si ions. For Ti, Fe and Zn excited by Si, the matching with theory is poor since even the ionization cross section is below the measured data.
