A technique for calculating X-ray emission spectra from absorption measurements in a gas is developed and applied experimentally. A Fredholm integral equation is obtained and solved numerically by a maximum-likelihood method which permits quantitative evaluation of the energy resolution of discrete and continuous spectra (e.g., 5 percent for the 275-eV carbon line if 10 to the 6th photons are detected). The method is used with the multifilament H2-filled detector described by Bogomolov and Peskov (1981) to analyze the ultrasoft emission from an X-ray tube and a vacuum-arc cathode spot. Typical spectra are shown, and applications in astrophysics and plasma physics are suggested.
