Abstract
Photoionization of an atom via interatomic correlations to $N$ neighboring atoms may be strongly enhanced due to constructive interference of quantum pathways. The ionization proceeds via resonant photoexcitation of a neighbor atom and subsequent interatomic Coulombic decay. The enhancement can scale with ${N}^{2}$, leading to ``superenhanced photoionization.''
