Abstract
A technique is described that uses Auger peaks to correct pairs of eje cted-electron spectra for three types of instrumental effects in a cro ssed-beam apparatus with an atomic cadmium target. By comparing Auger peaks that occur in autoionizing spectra taken 180 degrees apart, it i s possible to energy-align the spectra to 1 meV, to normalize their re lative intensity to 2%, and to correct for different energy resolution s to within 1%.
