Accurate experimental data regarding the X-ray production (XRP) cross
sections, ionization cross sections and the fluorescence yields are very
important because of the large number of their applications in various
areas of physical chemistry and medical research.
The average M-shell fluorescence yields, Mω, have been evaluated for
element 79 Au using our database of measured experimental values. We
have calculated the average M-shell fluorescence yield using the
experimental data measured by different groups covering the wide period.
We have interpolated these values of the experimental data by using the
analytical function as function of the atomic number (Z) to deduce the empirical average M-
shell fluorescence yield. The results have been compared with other
theoretical, experimental and empirical values reported in the literature
and a reasonable agreement has been obtained.
