Abstract
Using subnatural linewidth Auger-photoelectron coincidence spectroscop y following linearly polarized synchrotron radiation excitation we hav e measured the triply differential double photoionization cross sectio n of xenon at a photon energy of 97.5 eV. At this photon energy the ki netic energy of the 4d(5/2) photoelectron line matches exactly the pos ition of the S-1(0) N5O2.3O2.3 Auger line and therefore the two electr ons are indistinguishable. Lf the two electrons are emitted back to ba ck in the plane of polarization the triply differential cross section fully vanishes.
