We present here a semiempirical assignment for the electronic decay spectra of core to bound state resonances in N/sub 2/O. The electronic final states observed in these spectra can be assigned to participator and spectator decay processes, according to whether the initially excited core electron participates or acts as a spectator in the Auger decay of the core hole. The participator states are interpreted empirically using the known one electron binding energies. The assignment of the spectator lines is derived from the calculated Auger spectrum which is corrected for the Coulomb interaction between the spectator electron and the double hole valence configuration.
