K x-ray satellite spectrum of Al by photon excitation

K x-ray satellite spectra of Al in the element and its oxide Al(2)O(3), generated by photon excitation, have been studied with a plane crystal spectrometer. The energies and relative intensities of the K(alpha) x-ray satellite and K(beta) low-energy satellite have been measured and compared with theoretical estimates. The results in the element and its oxide are compared to look for chemical effects
