Autoionization of very-high-n strontium Rydberg atoms

Abstract

The autoionization of high n, n~280-430, strontium Rydberg states through excitation of the 5s 2S1/2→5p 2P1/2 transition in the core ion is investigated. The autoionization rates decrease rapidly as L is increased paving the way for production of long-lived two-electron-excited planetary atoms
