Abstract
We report new measurements of photo-ions, coincident with or fluorescence as incident-photon energy is swept through the Kr -shell threshold. From the branching ratios just above threshold, we obtain measurements of the ion charge-state probabilities for decay from the Kr and Kr states. In the threshold region, we observe both resonant enhancement and depletion of the branching ratios. By analyzing this behavior in light of theory, we extract sticking probabilities, which we feel are a useful set of parameters for investigating the general relationship between cascade decay from resonant and nonresonant hole states. A simplified theoretical model is employed to calculate these probabilities for the and cases.
