Abstract

The direct 5p photoionization of atomic Lu has been investigated by photoelectron spectroscopy in combination with monochromatized synchrotron radiation. Binding energies of the multiplet states have been determined from the photoelectron spectra. For the interpretation of the multiplet structure, we performed Hartree-Fock calculations, where configuration interaction was taken into account. The main result is that the splitting of the multiplet structure is dominated by the spin-orbit interaction.
