Subshell-dependent relaxation in the Auger effect

Abstract: The effect of relaxation on KLL, LMM, and MNN Auger-electron spectra of Ne, Mg, Ar, Ca, Zn, and Kr has been studied by the Dirac-Fock method. The relaxation is shown to depend universally on the Auger-electron energy aud on the number of peel electrons (N") in subshells above the final-state holes. In the sudden approx-imation limit (large N") the relaxation saturates to 14%%uo reduction of the Auger rates in analogy to the 20'Fo reduction of deep inner-shell Dirac-Fock photoionization cross sections well abov… Show more

“…In table 4 the experimental intensity distribution in both the resonant and normal Auger spectra is compared with predictions produced by several calculational methods excluding or including the FISCI. The Hartree-Fock (HF) calculations were made with Cowan's code [19], while the MCDF calculations of [5] and multichannel multiconfiguration Dirac-Fock (MMCDF) calculations of [20] were carried out with the method described in [21]. In calculations denoted by MCDF b and HF b the semi-empirical mixing coefficients from [17] were used to produce the redistribution of intensities caused by FISCI.…”

“…Except for the initial state nds/2(n+2)ps/2 which is an almost pure jj coupled state, all other initial and final bound states are far from either the jj or the LS coupling limit and therefore the assignments given to them are intended only to serve as tags of the transitions. The interaction between continuum channels and the orbital relaxation taking place during Auger emission were neglected in the present calculations, although both these effects may give a nontrivial contribution to the intensity and angular distributions of Auger transitions discussed in this work [5,19,20]. For a detailed discussion of the numerical approach see Ref.…”

“…Shortly after the publication in 1987 of the experimental absolute photoionization cross section Nasreen et al (1988) calculated the absolute photoionization cross section using the relativistic random-phase approximation (RPA) and obtained excellent agreement with the experimental cross sections measured by . Later Tulkki (1993) investigated the influence of relaxation and finalstate channel interaction on the 3p and 3s photoionization of K + , utilizing the multiconfiguration multichannel Dirac-Fock method. The results obtained were also in good agreement with the experimental cross section of .…”
