Abstract

Resonant transfer and excitation in highly charged uranium ions has been investigated by applying the X-ray/particle coincidence technique. This complete detection method for the RTE process in combination with the large L-shell fine structure splitting in uranium allows, for the first time, an L-subshell differential as well as angular differential study of the excitation and radiative stabilization of different intermediate electronic states. Measured L-subshell differential cross sections for the KLL-RTE in U 90+ →C collisions compare well with full relativistic calculations. For the radiative stabilization of the KL 1 2 L 3 2 intermediate states a significant anisotropy was found.
