The interference effects in the alignment and orientation of the Kr II 4p45p states following Kr I 3d9np resonance excitation

The energy dependence of the alignment parameter A20 for the Kr II 4p45p(E 1J1) states following excitation in the Raman regime with the exciting-photon energy passing through the Kr I 3d9np resonances was investigated theoretically and experimentally. Interference between the resonance and direct photoionization channels explains the dependence of A20 on the excitation energy. Experimentally, A20 was determined after the analysis of 5p–5s fluorescence decay of the 4p45p(E 1J1) states excited with monochromatized synchrotron radiation. The band pass of the synchrotron radiation was set to 10 meV which is smaller than the natural width of the 3d9np resonances (~83 meV). Additionally, a strong energy dependence was predicted for the orientation parameter O10 as well as for the angular distribution parameter of photoelectrons, βe, for several 4p45p(E 1J1) ionic states.
