Any good textbook on X-ray photoemission?

In summary, the query seeks recommendations for quality textbooks on X-ray photoemission, a technique used in surface science to study materials by analyzing the emitted photoelectrons when X-rays are applied.

I am now engaged in a study of real solids like Pu and Np.

I need some knowledge of the X-ray photoemission spectra. Specifically, I need to understand the sudden approximation, the main and satellite peaks, etc.

Is there any good reference on these topics?

By the way, I do theory.

NIST has a database of the transition energies. Unfortunately, as Z goes up, the data tends to get a little sparse.

If you work in that industry, why are you asking these questions on the Internet instead of going down the hall to your co-workers' offices to ask this?
