Abstract
Resonant photoemission studies have been performed at the 2p soft-x-ray absorption thresholds of Fe, Co, and Ni metal. At resonance, the photoelectron intensity exhibits a strong enhancement in the region of the two-hole satellites, which is shown, however, to be mostly due to an incoherent superposition of a photoemission signal with a more intense signal from anL3M4,5M4,5 Coster-Kronig decay of the core-ionized state. The resonant enhancement of the valence-band photoemission satellite in Ni metal amounts to a factor of ≃12. In contrast, no photoemission satellites are observed for Fe and Co metal.
