Abstract
We present an experimental and theoretical study of photoexcitation an d decay mechanisms of doubly excited resonances in neon. New spin-orbi t induced effects are identified in the angle-resolved and photoelectr on-resolved differential cross sections for a parity-unfavored transit ion. These observations are facilitated using a two-dimensional imagin g technique, and highlight the importance of considering spin-orbit in duced effects when studying detailed spectra in atomic systems as ligh t as neon.
