Experimental bremsstrahlung yields for MeV proton bombardment of beryllium and carbon

Experimental bremsstrahlung yields for 2, 3 and 4 MeV protons on thin beryllium and carbon targets have been measured. The yields have been corrected for detector efficiency, self-absorption in the target and fitted to 9th order polynomials over the X-ray energy range 1–10 keV for easy comparison with theoretical calculations.
