Observation Of The 2P\u3csup\u3e4\u3c/sup\u3e(\u3csup\u3e1\u3c/sup\u3eS)Ns, Md Excitations In Atomic Fluorine

In the first observation of the autoionizing resonances converging to the 2p4(1S) series limit of atomic fluorine, the decay of the resonance states into the (1D) ∈ℓ partial channel has been measured by photoelectron spectrometry with the use of synchrotron radiation. We present the initial results of this work
