Bremsstrahlung of electrons on atoms with allowance for polarizability
Amus'ya M.Ya., Baltenkov A.S., Paiziev A.A.
It is shown that the cross section for the bremsstrahlung of electrons at a quantum energy on the order of the ionization potential is determined by the virtual excitations of the target atom. An actual calculation is carried out for electrons scattered by argon and xenon.
