The LIII subshell photoelectric cross section, jump ratio, jump factor, and Davisson–Kirchner ratio of iridium have been determined by mass attenuation coefficients. The measurements have been performed using the X-ray attenuation method in narrow beam geometry. The obtained results have been compared with the tabulated values of XCOM (Berger et al. XCOM: Photon cross section database (version 1.3). NIST. Available at http://physics.nist.gov/xcom . 2005) and FFAST (Chantler et al. X-ray form factor, attenuation and scattering tables (version 2.1). NIST. Available at http://physics.nist.gov/ffast . 2005).

High-accuracy X-ray mass attenuation coefficients were measured from the first X-ray Extended Range Technique (XERT)-like experiment at the Australian Synchrotron. Experimentally measured mass attenuation coefficients deviate by ∼50% from the theoretical values near the zinc absorption edge, suggesting that improvements in theoretical tabulations of mass attenuation coefficients are required to bring them into better agreement with experiment. Using these values the imaginary component of the atomic form factor of zinc was determined for all the measured photon energies. The zinc K-edge jump ratio and jump factor are determined and results raise significant questions regarding the definitions of quantities used and best practice for background subtraction prior to X-ray absorption fine-structure (XAFS) analysis. The XAFS analysis shows excellent agreement between the measured and tabulated values and yields bond lengths and nanostructure of zinc with uncertainties of from 0.1% to 0.3% or 0.003 Å to 0.008 Å. Significant variation from the reported crystal structure was observed, suggesting local dynamic motion of the standard crystal lattice. XAFS is sensitive to dynamic correlated motion and in principle is capable of observing local dynamic motion beyond the reach of conventional crystallography. These results for the zinc absorption coefficient, XAFS and structure are the most accurate structural refinements of zinc at room temperature.

X-ray mass attenuation coefficients for polycrystalline samples of copper have been measured with a high-precision energy-dispersive method. Estimates of the scattering contributions to the attenuation coefficients are made. The photoelectric coefficients deduced from the experimental results are compared with theoretical calculations using screened hydrogen-like eigenfunctions as well as more rigorous relativistic wavefunctions.
