Abstract

Variations in asymmetry parameter, beta , and the ratio of partial photoionisation cross sections sigma (2P32/): sigma (2P12/) have been determined in the region of the 3s3p64p 1P10 resonance in Ar and the 5s5p66p 1P10 resonance in Xe. In both cases there is a considerable variation in beta through the resonance. In Ar the beta values for the spin-orbit components are similar; in Xe they are significantly different. In Xe, the branching ratio shows a modest variation through the resonance, whereas in Ar no noticeable change occurs.
