Abstract Accurate intensity measurements of the majorK x-ray groups have been performed with high resolution Ge(Li) detectors in singles and coincidence arrangements and with a high-purity Ge detector of the intrinsic type. Previously reportedK x-ray intensities forZ=96 are in error due to the presence of a 121.5 keV γ-ray in the decay of249Cf. The present results are as follows: forZ=81,K α2/K α1=0.589±0.008, $$K_{\beta _1^\prime } /K_{\alpha ^1 } = 0.344 \pm 0.008, K_{\beta _2^\prime } /K_{\alpha _1 } = 0.102 \pm 0.004$$ , andK β/K α=0.281±0.006; forZ=92 $$K_{\alpha _2 } /K_{\alpha _1 } = 0.611 \pm 0.008,K_{\beta _1^\prime } /K_{\alpha _1 } = 0.365 \pm 0.008, K_{\beta _2^\prime } /K_{\alpha _1 } = 0.125 \pm 0.004$$ , andK β/K α=0.300±0.006; forZ=94, $$K_{\alpha _2 } /K_{\alpha _1 } = 0.610 \pm 0.008, K_{\beta _1^\prime } /K_{\alpha _1 } = 0.369 \pm 0.010, K_{\beta _2^\prime } /K_{\alpha _1 } = 0.127 \pm 0.004$$ , andK β/K α=0.308±0.008; and forZ=96, $$K_{\alpha _2 } /K_{\alpha _1 } = 0.627 \pm 0.008, K_{\beta _1^\prime } /K_{\alpha _1 } = 0.372 \pm 0.009, K_{\beta _2^\prime } /K_{\alpha _1 } = 0.133 \pm 0.005$$ , andK β/K α=0.310±0.008. The error limits are the 2σ statistical errors to which a systematic error in the detector efficiencies has been added linearly. The present results are compared with recent theoretical calculations.
