In this experiment, we have recorded the charge state distribution resulting from atomic rearrangement following the creation of the inner shell vacancies in krypton atoms. Intense, highly collimated, monochromatic and tunable x-ray radiation available at the CHESS synchrotron radiation facility at Cornell was used to photoionize krypton atoms in a gas jet target, and a time-of-flight spectrometer was used to record the ions in different charge states formed after photoionization. Charge state spectra were recorded at below, at the peak in the K edge and above the edge. Below the edge, charge states +4 to +7 were observed with appreciable intensity, while at, and above the edge, the charge states ranged from +4 to +10.
