Tm. Kojima et al., PHOTOION YIELD SPECTROSCOPY IN THE 4D PHOTOIONIZATION OF EU+, Journal of physics. B, Atomic molecular and optical physics, 31(7), 1998, pp. 1463-1468
Using an ion-photon merged-beam apparatus, photoion yield spectra of E
u2+ and Eu3+ from the 4d photoionization of Eu+ were measured as a fun
ction of photon energy in the range 110-160 eV. The measured spectra l
ook very similar to those from a neutral Eu target. Both Eu2+ and Eu3 yield spectra, a broad 'giant resonance' appears at 140 eV with some
preceding small peaks at 131.5, 132.8 and 134.7 eV. The summit of the
'giant resonance' in the Eu2+ spectrum is split into two peaks. This i
s not observed in neutral Eu photoionization.
