Abstract
A model of nuclear excitation by electron transition near the K-shell ionization threshold of an atom is proposed. The nuclear excitation cross sections have been calculated for 197Au, 193Ir, and 189Os as functions of the energy of the photons ionizing the atomic shell. It is shown that excitation of 189Os begins under the K-shell photoionization threshold of Os, while excitation of 197Au and 193Ir begins above the K-shell photoionization threshold of Au and Ir, respectively.
