Three case studies are reviewed on the recent study related to inner-shell excited atoms and molecules. In the electronic decay following B 1s {yields} 2a{sub 2}{double_prime} excitation in BF{sub 3}, the spectator Auger electron emission forms six broad peaks showing good correspondence with the normal Auger bands and thus indicating the validity of the spectator model. In the case of 3p {yields} 3d excitation in Ca, the spectator model breaks down and collapse of the 3d wave function and many body effects play important roles in the electronic decay. In the dissociation dynamics following B 1s {yields} 2a{sub 2}{double_prime} excitation in BF{sub 3} the molecular deformation plays a key role.
