Abstract
Using radiometrically calibrated instrumentation of Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt, the L-shell fluorescence yields and Coster-Kronig factors of tantalum (including the uncertainty budget) were experimentally determined based on transmission and X-ray fluorescence experiments. The determined fluorescence yields (, , ) were independently validated trough XRR-GIXRF experiments. Both, the Coster-Kronig factors (, , ) as well as the fluorescence yields are in good agreement with the most established databases in the field of X-ray fluorescence.
