It is known that Ne-like ions have long lived metastable states (1[ital s][sup 2]2[ital s][sup 2]2[ital p][sup 5]3[ital s])[sup 3] [ital P][sub 0,2][sup 0]. It has been shown that these are involved in charge exchange collisions to give Na-like core excited species. The general problem which we address is their stabilization: through radiative and Auger processes. It was shown that these states present cascading patterns with a sharing between radiation and autoionization at each step of the cascade. More specifically we consider the evolution of the lowest doublet Na-like core excited states (2[ital p][sup 5]3[ital s][sup 2])[sup 2] [ital P][sub 1/2,3/2][sup 0] and discuss their behavior with atomic number Z.
