Inner-shell photoionization of atomic chlorine
Author
Summary, in English
Relative partial cross sections have been measured following photoexcitation of atomic chlorine near the Cl 2p and Cl 1s ionization thresholds. In addition, Breit-Pauli R-matrix calculations have been carried out in the region of the 2p thresholds, and the results are compared with experiment. Owing to angular-momentum considerations, it was found that the resonances associated with the higher 2p(-1) thresholds should be significantly wider than the lower ones, and this is borne out in both the experimental and the theoretical results. It is shown that a large number of resonance series contribute to the cross section, which make it difficult to untangle, and suggestions for further work to better understand the spectra are presented.
