X-rays: Transitions involving inner-shell electrons
Inner- Shell Transitions and Characteristic X-Rays: Hydrogen atom has only one shell in ground state. Its energy levels are of the order of few electron volts (ev) ; En = – 13.6 ev/n2. Therefore its spectrum has only lines in ultraviolet, visible and infrared region. But other heavy atoms have K, L, M, N…. shells. …
