Abstract

$K$-Auger transitions of neon produced by 33-MeV ${\mathrm{O}}^{5+}$ bombardment are clearly resolved above a broad peaked background. Besides the 5 normal transitions, we observe 58 satellite lines stemming from initial configurations having single $K$-shell, multiple $L$-shell vacancies. Transition energies and relative intensities are measured and compared with those obtained with 1.5-keV electron bombardment. Calculated energies for Auger satellite transitions are used to give possible identifications for observed lines.
