Spectrum of two quasiequal-energy electrons ejected by a high-energy photon

We present numerical results for the photoelectrcn spectrum in double ionization by keV photons in the quasiequal-energy sharing region. In this region of the spectrum, the relevant ionizing mechanism is due to a mutual sharing of the photon momentum by both electrons, with small momentum transferre...

description We present numerical results for the photoelectrcn spectrum in double ionization by keV photons in the quasiequal-energy sharing region. In this region of the spectrum, the relevant ionizing mechanism is due to a mutual sharing of the photon momentum by both electrons, with small momentum transferred to the atomic nucleus.

The spectra present a two-peak structure, with maxima located at the photoelectron energies ∈1 = ω/2 ±/ √ω3/8c2, with ω the photon energy in atomic units. We discuss the general features of the spectrum in terms of the picture of the photoionization of two free electrons, and we propose a way of detecting the contribution by experiments.
