Relativistic Calculation of two-Electron one-Photon and Hypersatellite Transition Energies for $12\leq Z\leq30$ Elements [PDF]
Energies of two-electron one-photon transitions from initial double K-hole states were computed using the Dirac-Fock model. The transition energies of competing processes, the K$\alpha$ hypersatellites, were also computed.
