We report the first results of a method for determining the inelastic attenuation length of low-energy electrons in the surface region of a solid from the yield...
A miniature argon arc has been designed and tested as a new transfer standard of spectral radiance for the wavelength range from 114 nm to 330 nm. Calibration...
We have calculated the energy distribution of secondary electrons observed in core-level XPS or core-level synchrotron photoemission experiments on Al. The...
A study was made of an automatic - and a manual- defrost refrigerator/freezer combination, and an upright and a chest freezer to measure the effect on energy...
Photoelectron spectra of gas-phase molecules display sharp vibrational structure. The envelope of the spectrum is determined by the Franck-Condon factor. On the...
Measurements are made of the transmission of medium energy electrons through in vacuo deposited films in order to determine the inelastic electron mean free...
Measurements of relative intensities of infrared transitions in N 2O and H 2CO have been made using forward inelastic scattering of 100 eV electrons. Agreement...
Photoelectron spectra (hv = 21.22 eV) and thermal desorption data were obtained for CO and H coadsorbed on W(100) at 80 K. When the clean surface is exposed to...
The angular distribution of electrons ejected in core-valence-valence Auger transitions of atoms chemisorbed on metal surfaces is considered theoretically...
Relativistic Hartree-Fock-Wigner-Seitz band calculations have been performed for the actinide metals Ac through Bk in order to estimate the Coulomb term U and 5...
Screening or polarization energies (often called "extra-atomic relaxation energies") associated with localized-hole creation in photoelectron spectroscopy in or...
It is shown that the primary contribution to the field-emission current comes from electrons with total momentum equal to zero in a direction parallel to the...
We report precise optical measurements of the equations of state of Xe, SF_6, and CO2 very near their critical points (|T - T_c|/T_c 5 x 10^-5). We find that...
By means of soft-x-ray photoemission Citrin and Hamann have observed core level shifts of Ne, Ar, Kr, and Xe atoms implanted in the noble metals and have...
Mean free paths for electrons in bulk jellium are calculated for electrons with energies from a few hundred to a few thousand eV and for values of r s for 1.5...
