Abstract
In our previous works we have found a large discrepancy in experimental and theoretical L1 line widths in elements between Z = 41 to 50. This is due to an overestimate of Coster Kronig L1 - L3M4,5 processes by theory. The theory predicts the closing of L1 - L3M4,5 chanel at Z = 50 in atoms as well as in solid state. The experimental X-ray emission results indicate that the L1 - L3M4 CK chanel may close already at Z = 48
