Multi-electron coincidence spectroscopy: Triple Auger decay of Ar 2p and 2s holes
Résumé
The detailed study of single photon multiple ionization processes requires the detection in coincidence of all the electrons emitted from the same ionization event. The advent of magnetic bottle experiments made possible the development of this multi-electron coincidence spectroscopy. First we will briefly review the achievements of this technique. Then we will illustrate more specifically its high sensitivity taking as an example the decay by emission of three Auger electrons of 2p and 2s holes in argon. Our results show that the processes are completely different depending on the initial core hole: the three Auger electrons are emitted dominantly in a simultaneous path for the 2p case, but in cascade for the 2s one.
