The atomic inner‐shell vacancy decay processes comprising of radiative and non‐radiative transitions are characterized by the physical parameters, namely, the photoionization cross‐sections; X‐ray, Auger and Coster–Kronig (CK) transition rates; fluorescence and CK yields; and the vacancy transfer probabilities. These parameters are required to calculate the K‐shell and L i ( i = 1–3)/M i ( i = 1–5) sub‐shell X‐ray production cross‐sections and relative intensities which, in turn, are needed for different analytical applications. This report intended to provide a detailed account of the currently available data sets of different physical parameters for use in various analytical applications.
