Experimental data from our previous studies were systematically compiled and employed to construct smooth empirical trends by polynomial interpolation so as to represent the variation of these transitions across the different elements. In parallel, new theoretical values were calculated for selected elements using the Multiconfiguration Dirac-Fock (MCDF) method, incorporating relativistic effects. When compared with available theoretical and experimental data the results show good agreement, especially for medium and heavy elements. These new results provide reliable reference data for modeling L-shell vacancy decay processes and support a range of applications in atomic physics, X-ray spectroscopy, and radiation interaction studies.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessX-ray fluorescenceCoster-Kronig transitionsEmpirical and MCDF calculationsArticle10.1016/j.radphyschem.2025.1135432412-s2.0-105023960013Q1WOS:001638101600002Q1
