The relative intensity, γ=I(3P)/I(1P), of the group of X-ray emission Ti and Cr KαL1-satellites in metals and their ion–covalent compounds is experimentally investigated. As established, the value of γ decreases by 30–50% at the transition from metals, Ti and Cr, to carbides and oxides, TiC, Cr3C2, TiO2, Cr2O3, with increasing of effective charge of metal atoms. The cause of the γ value decreasing may be due to the dependence of the KL2,3(3P)εp(2S) and KL2,3(1P)εp(2S) configurations’ interaction on the screening of the K- and L2,3-vacancies by free electrons. In metals, this screening substantially reduces the amplitudes of transitions between the states of the KL2,3(3P)εp(2S) and KL2,3(1P)εp(2S) configurations. In ion–covalent compounds, the screening is practically absent; so, a significant enhancement of the Coulomb interaction of the ejected 2p-electron with L2,3-vacancy leads to a mixture of the 3P- and 1P states of KL2,3-configuration by means of the intense interchannel KL2,3(3P)εp(2S)KL2,3(1P)εp(2S) transitions.

Key words: effective charge, X-ray KαL1 satellites, screening, configuration interaction.
