Résumé Characteristic X-ray emission offers insight into fundamental atomic processes and as such, gives an opportunity to test calculations of many-electron atomic wavefunctions and relativistic quantum mechanics. Using the multiconfiguration Dirac-Hartree-Fock method, the Ka X-ray spectrum of three 3d transition metals, scandium (Z=21), manganese (Z=25), copper (Z=29), have been calculated from first principles. The spectra are compared with state-of-the-art empirical data from three different sources, a curved crystal spectrometer with gravity-referenced clinometer, synchrotron data, and a double-flat crystal spectrometer.
