Description

The L x-ray spectrum of Np following α-decay of 241Am was carefully reinvestigated by using HPGe detectors. Energy values of major lines are in good agreement with data deduced from Bearden's work, except for Lα1 and Lβsub(2.15) which exceed theoretical values by 8 and 22 eV, respectively. Intensities of different components agree well with previous experimental work, and β9, β10, γ11, γ13, t and s lines were found for the first time for Np (Z = 93). L subshell probability ratios are consistent with the Hartree-Fock-Slater calculations of Scofield. (author)
