Angular distribution of molecular K-shell Auger electrons: Spectroscopy of photoabsorption anisotropy

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. Lett.; (United States)
The angular distribution of Auger electrons emitted in the decay of molecular K-shell vacancies created by photoabsorption is predicted to be a direct probe of the anisotropy of molecular photoabsorption. The sigma..--> pi.. discrete absorption of the sigma..-->..sigma f-wave shape resonance in N/sub 2/ and CO are given as examples.
