An extensive and detailed mapping of the resonant Auger decay of all the photoexcited 3d{sub 3/2,5/2}{sup {minus}1}np states in Kr has been performed using angle-resolved two-dimensional photoelectron spectroscopy at the Advanced Light Source at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. This has allowed us to obtain angular distributions and spectator and shake probabilities for the Kr 3d{sup {minus}1}np{r_arrow}4s{sup {minus}1}4p{sup {minus}1}({sup 1}P)mp+e{sup {minus}} (n=5{endash}9, m=5{endash}11) resonance Auger decays. The results show that the spectator-core coupling is strong at lower {ital n} (n=5,6) but lessens for higher {ital n}, with a shake-up of m=n+1 preferred. The observed trend is in good agreement with the previous experimental and theoretical spectator and shake probabilities for these transitions and also with the analogous decay to the 4s{sup 2}4p{sup 4}mp states [H. Aksela {ital et al.}, Phys. Rev. Lett. {bold 25}, 4970 (1997)]. However, to our knowledge, no prior angular distribution measurements for the Kr 3d{sup {minus}1}np{r_arrow}4s{sup {minus}1}4p{sup {minus}1}({sup 1}P)mp+e{sup {minus}} (n=5{endash}9, m=5{endash}11) resonant Auger decay has been reported. These are found to also show similar behavior to the decay to the 4s{sup 2}4p{sup 4}mp states. {copyright} {ital 1999} {ital The American Physical Society}
