Partial photoionization cross sections and angular distributions for double excitation of helium up to the N = 13 threshold.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Partial photoionization cross sections sigmaN(Egamma) and photoelectron angular distributions betaN(Egamma) were measured for the final ionic states He+ (N > 4) in the region between the N = 8 and N = 13 thresholds (Egamma > 78.155 eV) using the cold target recoil ion momentum spectroscopy technique (COLTRIMS). Comparison of the experimental data with two independent sets of theoretical predictions reveals disagreement for the branching ratios to the various HeN(+) states. The angular distributions just below the double ionization threshold suggest an excitation process for highly excited N states similar to the Wannier mechanism for double ionization.

Doubly Excited States in Helium Close to the Double Ionization Threshold: Angular and Energy Resolved Partial Cross Sections
This is a report about a novel experiment on double excitation of Helium by absorption of synchrotron radiation close to the double ionization threshold at 79 eV. Partial cross-sections for single-ionization from 78.15 eV up to 78,9 eV (photon energy) with an energy resolution of 3meV have been measured. The technique described in this article allows for an angular and energy resolved measureme...
متن کاملEqual energy sharing double photo ionization of the Helium atom at 20eV and 40eV above threshold
In this article we present triple differential cross sections for equal energy sharing kinematics for double photoionization of the helium atom at 20 and 40eV above threshold in the framework of the hyperspherical partial wave theory. This supplements our earlier work [1] in which we were successful in showing fully, gauge independence of the results in our formalism. Also in this work we treat...
متن کاملTime-dependent close-coupling calculations of correlated photoionization processes in helium
Various correlated photoionization processes in helium are calculated by direct solution of the timedependent Schrödinger equation. An inhomogeneous set of time-dependent close-coupled partial differential equations are partitioned on a numerical lattice for easy implementation on massively parallel computers. Projection of the time evolved wave function onto lattice eigenstates for He yields c...
متن کاملTime-dependent close-coupling calculations for the double photoionization of He and H2
Photoionization cross sections for both atomic helium and molecular hydrogen are calculated using a time-dependent close-coupling method. The total electronic wavefunction for the two-electron system is expanded in six dimensions, where four dimensions are represented on a radial and angular lattice and a coupled channels expansion is used to represent the other two dimensions. Double photoioni...
متن کاملCalculation of the photoionization with de-excitation cross sections of He and helium-like ions
We discuss the results of the calculation of the photoionization with de-excitation of excited He and helium-like ions Li+ and B3+ at high but non-relativistic photon energies ω. Several lower 1S and 3S states are considered. We present and analyze the ratios R d of the cross sections of photoionization with de-excitation, σ (d)(ω), and of the photo-ionization with excitation, σ +∗(ω). The depe...
