We report on recent experimental and theoretical results for triple photoionization of Xeq+ (3≤ q ≤ 5) ions [1]. The measurements were carried out using the photon-ion spectrometer PIPE [2] at the Hamburg PETRA III synchrotron light source. The strongest photoionization resonances are associated with the photoexcitation of a 3d electron to an atomic nf subshell (n  =  4,5,6, ...) and the subsequent multiple autoionization of the associated hole states. The 3d3/2−1−3d5/2−1 fine structure splitting (∼13 eV) of the 3d hole leads to two distinct Rydberg series of resonances in each spectrum. Progressively more ionization-resonance structures are observed as the primary charge state of the ions is increased. This visualizes the re-ordering of the ε f continuum into a regular series of (bound) Rydberg orbitals as the ionic core becomes more attractive.
