Abstract The x-ray satellites found on the high energy sides of theL 2,3 emission bands of Na, Mg, Al, and Si have previously been attributed to the radiative decay of double ionization states. However, in some recent papers it has been proposed that the satellites in Al and Si may arise from the simultaneous radiative decay of a core ionization state and a volume plasmon. A detailed investigation of the high energy satellites of theL 2,3 x-ray emission bands of Na, Mg, Al, and Si have been made for incident electron energies from 500 eV to 5 keV and the results compared with the double ionization theory. Plasmon involvement is also considered. The present results lend additional support to the first interpretation; namely, that the satellites arise from the radiative decay of atoms with a double vacancy in theL 2,3 (2p) shell and not from the plasma phenomenon.
