Abstract

X-ray spectra produced by Pt and Os bombardment of Fe targets have been measured in the projectile energy range ofE p =17 to 30 MeV. The thick target yields of the Fe K-shell and Pt and Os M-shells were analyzed within the Landau-Zener model. M-vacancy fractions, their respective lifetimes, and the level-crossing radii for the Pt−Fe and Os−Fe encounters were deduced. The results are discussed with emphasis on the mechanism of transient magnetic fields.
