M sub‐shell x‐ray production cross sections from 75–300 keV proton bombardment of thick elemental targets of W, Pt, and Pb were measured and compared with ECPSSR and relativistic RPWBA‐BC cross sections using different data bases of fluorescence yields, Coster‐Kronig factors, and x‐ray transition rates. With a few exceptions, the differences between the various data base comparisons were not significant. For different sub‐shells, either ECPSSR or RPWBA‐BC compared better with the measurements. In all cases, agreement with theory improved as the collision energy increased.
