Abstract
X-rays emitted from resonant coherently excited (RCE) n=2 states of 390 MeV/amu hydrogen-like Ar17+ ions were observed under planar channeling in a Si crystal. The resonance profiles for X-ray emission consisting of two peaks for j=1/2 and j=3/2 are characterized by suppression of the j=1/2 peak. The degeneracy of the n=2 states are removed by Stark effect due to the static crystal field. The RCE probability of these Stark splitted substates differs, reflecting the polarization of the oscillating crystal field. However, the associated alignment was not clearly observed. It is explained by the fact that both polarization of the oscillating crystal field and the wave functions of Stark-mixed n=2 states depend on the distance from the channel center, and the X-ray emission is preferred in a channel center in a crystal.
