Incoming X-ray photon 2 3 1 Emitted photon ejected e− X-ray Fluorescence Because the energy levels between different shells change from element to element (because the effective nuclear charge is changing) the energy of the secondary X-rays that are emitted are different for each element. By measuring the energies of the secondary X-rays we can determine which elements are present and their approximate ratios.
