L x‐ray fluorescence cross‐sections (σ Lα , σ Lβ , and σ Lγ ) were measured with an accuracy of 6% (except for the L γ x‐ray line around 8%) for La, Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Tm, Yb and Lu at an excitation energy of 17.78 keV. Relative intensities I Kβ / I Kα and I Lγ / I Lα were also measured for the same elements. The measured cross‐sections were compared with experimental and theoretical values. Measurements of the emitted x‐rays were performed using an Si(Li) detector. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
