Angularly resolved Auger rates of LiF and HF

Abstract

Angularly resolved Auger rates are investigated. The angular distributions of Auger electrons display a strong dependence on the final dicationic state which is created by the Auger process. The angular distributions show interference structures which can be related to the geometry of the molecule. Although there are presently no experimental data on angularly resolved Auger rates, we suppose that the angular distributions are measurable, e.g., by coincidence techniques.
