Xenon with its high number of electrons and their manifold interactions is a commonly used sample for the study of quantum-mechanical electron-correlative effects.
In this experiment, Photon-Induced Fluorescence Spectroscopy has been used to determine fluorescence excitation cross-sections and the angular distribution of the fluorescence from selected transitions after excitation of the XeI ground state to the doubly excited state [Kr] 5s2 5p4 (3P2) nl n∗l∗ with narrow-band synchrotron radiation and its subsequent autoionization into XeII 5p46p satellite states.
The fluorescence angular distribution shows an exciting-photon energy dependent variation. Thereby, the calculation of alignment and orientation parameters for certain electronic states in XeII and an electron partial wave analysis is feasible [Schill et. al., J. Phys. B. 36, L57 (2003)].
