In a joint theoretical and experimental effort, we have investigated the spectra of even autoionizing resonances mp1/25 nl′ (l′ = 1, 3) of the rare gas atoms Rg = Ne, Ar, Kr, and Xe (m = 2-5). The calculations are based on the Pauli-Fock approach and include core polarization and electron correlation effects at a high level, as described in [1]. Two different experimental setups, both involving a pulsed source of metastable rare gas atoms Rg[mp5 (m+1)s 3P2,0] and a frequency-doubled pulsed dye laser of narrow bandwidth in conjunction with a time-of-flight mass spectrometer for ion detection, were used to study the even np’ (J = 1,2) and nf’(J = 2,3) autoionizing resonances by single photon excitation. The theoretical predictions for the energies, widths and lineshapes of the resonances will be compared with the experimental results.
