Abstract
A theoretical model to calculate the photoion yields registered in coincidence with fixed-energy Auger electrons is developed. The intermediate-coupling approximation is used to calculate the term structure of the two-hole states reached by Auger transitions, and the branching ratios of their further Auger, Coster–Kronig and super Coster–Kronig decays into the three-hole states. The remaining parts of the cascading decay de-excitation trees are simulated in configuration-average approximation for branching ratios and transition energies. Our calculation allowed us to explain the recent M45NN Auger-electron–photoion coincidence experiment upon M45 photoionization of Xe.
