The latest values of the fundamental constants for X-ray standards are grouped in TABLE 1. The conversion of wavelengths to energies in keV is done by multiplying the reciprocal wavelength with the conversion factor 1.239 841 857(49) 10 ?9 keV m (Mohr and Taylor 1999, 2000, CODATA 2003). The database of X-ray wavelengths for elements (Bearden 1967) has recently been updated, adjusted to the new standards and compared with new calculations using the Dirac-Fock method (Deslattes 2003 a). Their values of X-ray energies for neon (Z=10) to fermium (Z=100) are also available on the Internet (Deslattes 2003b).
