Fluorescence yields and Coster-Kronig probabilities for the atomic L subshells

L subshell fluorescence yields (omega(i) and Coster-Kronig probabilities f(ij) (i,j = 1,2,3) obtained from experimental measurements are collected. A critical examination of these data is undertaken, including recalculation of some results. A subset of the data is selected for presentation in graphs, which also show the interpolated predictions of the Dirac-Hartree-Slater version of the independent-particle model. Tables provide recommended values for omega(i) and f(ij), respectively, and include for comparison the Dirac-HartreeSlater predictions and the values recommended in the widely referenced 1979 review of Krause.
