Interpretation of the anisotropy of M MO radiation in slow I on Au collisions

A comparison between experimental and calculated spectral shape and energy dependence of the M MO x-ray anisotropy in heavy-ion collisions of I on Au is presented. The calculation is performed within the kinematic-dipole model of anisotropy using MO x-rays determined from SCF relativistic correlation diagrams.

Note on the quasimolecular M radiation in very heavy collision systems

The quasimolecular M radiation emitted in collisions between Xe ions of up to 6 MeV energy and solid targets of Ta, Au, Pb and Bi, as well as a gaseous target of Pb(CH_3)_4, has been studied. Using a realistic theoretical correlation diagram, a semiquantitative explanation of the observed peak structure is given.
