Comparison with recent experiment shows good agreement for the total cross section, but only qualitative agreement for the photoelectron angular distribution asymmetry parameter, β. The disagreement was traced to the omission of photoionization-plus-excitation channels arising from the 4d subshell.</p> 2013-09-05 00:00:00 omission distribution asymmetry parameter region figure subshell relaxation Ba 5 disagreement photoelectron photoionization experiment section approximation cooper abstract Atomic Physics Molecular Physics
