Title: Relativistic effects on interchannel coupling in atomic photoionization: The photoelectron angular distribution of Xe 5s

Journal Article · · Physical Review A

Measurements of the photoelectron angular-distribution asymmetry parameter {beta} for Xe 5s photoionization have been performed in the 80--200 eV photon-energy region. The results show a substantial deviation from the nonrelativistic value of {beta}=2 and provide a clear signature of significant relativistic effects in interchannel coupling.
