The resonant double photoionization of Ne has been studied via an electron-electron coincidence experiment. A complete set of measurements was performed at different mutual angles when the photoelectron and Auger-electron pairs have nearly equal energy. The overall experimental energy resolution, narrower than the natural linewidth of the intermediate state, has allowed us to observe interference effects due to the indistinguishability of the two electrons. The observed energy and angular distribution exhibit a strong interplay of postcollisional interaction and interference effects. Calculations based on the model developed by Sheinerman and Schmidt [J. Phys. B 30, 1677 (1997)] describe the main trend of the experimental observations.

Abstract
The resonant double photoionization of Ne has been studied via an electron-electron coincidence experiment. A complete set of measurements was performed at different mutual angles when the photoelectron and Auger-electron pairs have nearly equal energy. The overall experimental energy resolution, narrower than the natural linewidth of the intermediate state, has allowed us to observe interference effects due to the indistinguishability of the two electrons. The observed energy and angular distribution exhibit a strong interplay of postcollisional interaction and interference effects. Calculations based on the model developed by Sheinerman and Schmidt [J. Phys. B 30, 1677 (1997)] describe the main trend of the experimental observations.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
