Abstract
This study investigated the dissociation after the Xe 4d Auger decay of weak-bonding XeF2 molecules by multielectron-ion coincidence spectroscopy using a magnetic bottle electron spectrometer. Fragmentations from the XeF22+ states were clarified in the Auger spectra coincident with individual ion species. It was observed that the two-hole population led by the Auger decay was not directly inherited during the fragmentation of XeF22+. Furthermore, the dissociations of XeF23+ states produced by the double Auger decay were investigated.
