Partial photoionization cross sections and angular distribution asymmetry parameters for atomic xenon have been calculated in the relativistic random-phase approximation for 26 jj-coupled channels over a wide range of energies (0 -1 keV). The effects of relaxation on the 4d and 3d cross sections are examined by using a modification of the relativistic random-phase approximation that calculates excited-state orbitals in the potential of the relaxed ion. Results are compared with Hartree-Fock theory, with the nonrelativistic random-phase approximation, and with recent photoemission experiments.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
