Beschreibungen/Notizen

• We present experimental data on the state-selective quantum interference between different pathways of photorecombination, namely, radiative and dielectronic recombination, in the KLL resonances of highly charged mercury ions. The interference, observed for well resolved electronic states in the Heidelberg electron beam ion trap, manifests itself in the asymmetry of line shapes, characterized by "Fano factors," which have been determined with unprecedented precision, as well as their excitation energies, for several strong dielectronic resonances.
