Photoionization and Spectroscopy of Atoms and Molecules

考德威尔教授将使用同步辐射作为光源，继续她对原子结构和电离动力学的研究。她将研究原子内部能量流动动力学的两个新方面：开壳层原子的内壳层电离，以及通过光电离符合方法进行的电子-电子关联。相关工作对于回答原子结构中最重要的问题之一很重要：三个带电粒子的运动在吸收电离辐射后相互后退时是如何相互关联的？

Professor Caldwell will continue her studies of atomic structure and dynamics of ionization using synchrotron radiation as the optical source. She will study two new aspects of the dynamics of energy flow inside atoms: inner-shell ionization of open-shell atoms, and electron-electron correlations by means of photoionization coincidence methods. The correlation work is important in answering one of the most important questions in atomic structure: how does the motion of three charged particles correlate as they recede from each other after absorption of ionizing radiation?
