Angular distribution of photoelectrons from p levels in Ar, Kr and Xe close to threshold

• Using a DC discharge VUV source equipped with a rotating, focusing reflection polariser in conjunction with a hemispherical electron spectrometer, the angular distribution of photoelectrons from the outermost p levels in the noble gases Ar, Kr and Xe was measured in the kinetic-energy region 0-3 eV. Discharges in Ne, Ar, Kr, Xe and N2 are used to obtain photons with energies in the range 11-19 eV. For photon energies between the ionisation thresholds for the P3/2 and P1/2 levels, observed rapid oscillations in beta are correlated with resonances with autoionising states. For higher photon energies, the energy dependence of beta is smooth.
