Abstract
The photoionization of C has been studied using accurate frozen-core Hartree-Fock final-state wave functions. The Hartree-Fock continuum equations were solved using the iterative Schwinger variational method. We present differential and total cross sections for photoionization leading to the , , , and , states of C as well as for oxygen and carbon -shell photoionization. The present cross sections are compared to experimental data and are found to be in generally good agreement. The theoretical cross sections exhibit features due to a narrow shape resonance in those channels where the continuum wave functions have symmetry. The relation between these results and experimental cross sections is discussed. The present fixed-nuclei results have also been compared to published theoretical results obtained using the Stieltjes-Tchebycheff moment theory approach and the continuum multiple-scattering method.
