How Can We Get Roentgen Radiation ?
 
 
Thus far, weve discussed only valence electrons which act to give us optical spectrums. If the inner electrons are excited then we have a new situation with Roentgen radiation from the inner state. So far, weve discussed the principle of periodical characteristics which takes into account the outermost electron. If the first electrons are situated in the outermost shells and are moving inside an atom then the effective potential of other electrons would change and level series of these internal electrons would also change. The energy consequence is then based upon the main quantum number n.
