Table 1.

Photoionization cross section, asymmetry factor of the core level ionization for the angle of 60° between x-ray beam and electron emission detection in the SPEM and the inelastic mean free path of the Cu 3p and Au 4f photoelectrons at the given kinetic energies. The data were taken from the literature[79] [80].
