Please select your desired series.
* The combined Kα1, Kα2 is used for Z less than 40. The Kα1 only is used for the higher Z values.
** The data set for the N-Series peaks is not completely characterized by standardized methods.
| K-Series Relative Peak Intensities |
|
18 <= Z < 59 |
| Kα |
100 % |
| Kβ |
10-20 % |
| At Z less than 18, the Kβ decreases in height, and becomes closer to, and is eventually not resolved from the Kα. At Z greater than 59, the Kβ increases in size and sub-peaks can be seen. |
| L-Series Relative Peak Intensities |
|
21 <= Z <= 34 |
35 < Z |
| Ll |
200-6 % |
3.5-6 % |
| Ln |
70-3 % |

| Lα1 |

| Lβ1 |

| Lβ2 |

| Lγ1 |

0-8 % |
| Lγ2 |

0-2 % |
| At Z less than 21, the Lα1 and Lβ1 are 0 and Ll is the dominant peak. The Ll is not observable at a Z of 14 or less. |
| M-Series Relative Peak Intensities |

57 <= Z <= 70 |
70 < Z |
| Mz |
140-13 % |

| Mγ |

3.5-1 % |
| M2N4 |
0-2 % |
0-2 % |
| At Z less than 57, the Mα becomes 0% and the Mz is the dominant peak. The Mγ becomes 0 at Z < 50. |
