An Analysis of Scattered X-Rays with the Double Crystal Spectrometer

X-rays from a molybdenum target were scattered by graphite at approximately 109^∘{} and 161^∘{}. The scattered rays were analyzed with a double crystal spectrometer. When scattering at 109^∘{} was used, no indication of the fine structure lines, reported by Davis and his collaborators, could be found. When scattering at 161^∘{} was used, the modified Kα₁ and Kα₂ lines were definitely separated. The value of δλ was 0.04721±{}0.00003A, the value of 1-cosθ was 1.9479 and the calculated value of h/mc was 0.02424±{}0.00004A.
