K X‐ray prodution cross‐sections for S, Cl, K, Ni, Cu, Ga, Br, Ag and Cs and total L X‐ray production cross‐sections for Cs, W and Pb using α‐particles of 11, 16, 21 and 27 MeV energy have been measured. The present results, combined with some earlier measurements, were compared with the theoretical predictions of the plane‐wave Born approximation (PWBA), binary encounter approximation (BEA) and perturbed stationary state (PSS) approximation.
