Theory and computation of electromagnetic transition matrix elements in the continuous spectrum of atoms
The present study examines the mathematical properties of the free-free (
f-f) matrix elements of the full electric field operator, of the multipolar
Hamiltonian. Special methods are developed and applied for their computation,
for the general case where the scattering wavefunctions are calculated
numerically in the potential of the term-dependent (N-1) electron core, and are
energy-normalized. It is found that, on the energy axis, the f-f matrix
elements of the full operator have singularities of first order in the case of
equal photoelectron energies. The numerical applications are for f-f
transitions in Hydrogen and Neon, obeying electric dipole and quadrupole
selection rules. In the limit of zero photon wave-number, the full operator
reduces to the length form of the electric dipole approximation (EDA). It is
found that the results for the EDA agree with those of the full operator, with
the exception of a photon wave-number region about the singularity.Comment: 39 pages, 11 figure
THEORETICAL ASPECTS OF AUGER TRANSITIONS INVOLVING VALENCE ELECTRONS IN MOLECULES AND SOLIDS
THE OBJECT OF THIS THESIS IS THE EXAMINATION OF THEORETICAL ASPECTS OF AUGER TRANSITIONS INVOLVING A PAIR OF VALENCE ELECTRONS IN MOLECULES AND METALS. SUCH TRANSITIONS GIVE RISE TO SPECTRA OF MUCH GREATER COMPLEXITY THAN THOSE ARISING FROM PHOTOELECTRONS OR SOFT X-RAYS. THIS COMPLEXITY IS CONSEQUENTLY REFLECTED INTHE MATHEMATICAL TOOLS NECESSARY TO COPE WITH THE SITUATION. FOR BOTH, MOLECULAR AND SOLID STATE SPECTRA, THE NOTION OF THE SPECTRAL DENSITY FUNCTION OF A FERMION PAIR IS INTRODUCED BY ANALOGY TO THE SIMPLE SPECTRAL DENSITY FUNCTION THAT APPEARS IN THE LITERATURE. THROUGH THAT FUNDAMENTAL IDEA, THE AUGER SPECTRA ARE GIVEN AN ELEGANT FORMULATION. FOR MOLECULES, TREATED WITHIN THE LCAO APPROXIMATION, THIS FORMALISM MAKES APPARENT THE SIMILARITY WITH THE ATOMIC AUGER SPECTRA. FURTHERMORE, A WELL JUSTIFIED APPROXIMATION OF NEGLECT OF INTERATOMIC AUGER TRANSITION MATRIX ELEMENTS, ALLOWS FOR A COMPLETE ANALOGY TO BE DRAWN, THE COMPONENTS OF A MOLECULAR SPECTRUM BEING EXPRESSED IN TERMS OF THE COMPONENTS OF THE ATOMIC SPECTRUM OF THE ELEMENT DIRECTLY INVOLVED. COMPARISON IS MADE WITH AVAILABLE EXPERIMENTAL DATA ON FREE MOLECULE SPECTRA. FOR METALS, THE SPECTRAL DENSITY OF THE FERMION PAIR IS INTRODUCED WITHIN THE CONTEXT OF THE OCCUPATION NUNBER FORMALISM AND PROVIDES A NATURAL WAY TO EXAMINE THE EFFECT OF DYNAMICAL PAIR CORRELATIONS ON THE AUGER SPECTRUM.ΤΟ ΑΝΤΙΚΕΙΜΕΝΟ ΑΥΤΗΣ ΤΗΣ ΔΙΑΤΡΙΒΗΣ ΕΙΝΑΙ Η ΕΞΕΤΑΣΗ ΤΩΝ ΘΕΩΡΗΤΙΚΩΝ ΠΡΟΒΛΗΜΑΤΩΝ ΤΩΝ ΜΕΤΑΒΑΣΕΩΝ AUGER ΠΟΥ ΠΕΡΙΛΑΜΒΑΝΟΥΝ ΕΝΑ ΖΕΥΓΟΣ ΗΛΕΚΤΡΟΝΙΩΝ ΣΘΕΝΟΥΣ ΣΕ ΜΟΡΙΑ ΚΑΙ ΜΕΤΑΛΛΑ.

Bound states and decay mechanisms of He-
Detailed electron-correlation calculations which include the mixing of closed channel with open channels, suggest that He- has only two bound states: The 1s2s2p Po4 and the 2p3So4. The 1s2p2P4 and P2 states are above the He 1s2p Po3 threshold and therefore qualify only as core-excited shape resonances. This conclusion contradicts certain previous theoretical and experimental findings which implied the existence of bound He- P4 and P2 states. Both Po4 and So4 autoionize to the adjacent continuum via spin-dependent forces-a well-known decay mechanism. However, there are two more decay mechanisms: nonrelativistic (for So4) and relativistic (for Po4) radiative autoionization (RA). The probability for RA of the So4 state in the Hartree-Fock approximation is computed to be 1.14×1010 sec-1 © 1981 The American Physical Society
