Abstract

Theoretical double photoionization cross sections are predicted for He initially in the $1s2s{}^{1}S$ or ${}^{3}S$ state. The probability for double photoionization is a factor of 6 higher for the ${}^{1}S$ state at 20 eV above the threshold for double ionization and a factor of 3 larger at 80 eV above threshold. We compare these results with each other and with predictions for the high-energy limit to assess the influence of exchange on the double ejection process. Similar comparisons are also made for the process of photoionization-induced excitation of ${\mathrm{He}}^{+}(n)$.
