Multiple Ionization of Neon under soft x-rays: Theory vs Experiment


الملخص بالإنكليزية

We present a rather elaborate theoretical model describing the dynamics of Neon under radiation of photon energies $sim 93$ eV and pulse duration in the range of 15 fs, within the framework of Lowest non-vanishing Order of Perturbation Theory (LOPT), cast in terms of rate equations. Our model includes sequential as well as direct multiple ionization channels from the 2s and 2p atomic shells, including aspects of fine structure, whereas the stochastic nature of SASE-FEL light pulses is also taken into account. Our predictions for the ionization yields of the different ionic species are in excellent agreement with the related experimental observations at FLASH.
