The influence of inner shells upon the anisotropy parameter of the 4p-photoelectrons angular distribution in Kr is investigated in the frame of the random phase approximation with exchange (RPAE). The comparison with experimental data and other calculationsdemonstrates an essential role of intershell correlations, the account of which allows to achieve a satisfactory agreement between theoretical and experimental data.

The aim of this letter is to study the variations of the energy dependence of the angular distribution anisotropy parameter (3(e) for 4p-photoelectrons in Kr and to learn, whether these variations exist due to intershell correlations only or, besides, due to relativistic effects. The calculation of /3(e) performed in this paper takes into account the intershell correlations in nonrelativistic approximation and is of interest in connection with essential differences between existing experimental data [1—3] The comparison of our and other calculations [4,5] serves as an additional argument in clarifying the question of which experimental data are more reliable. In the previous calculation ofj3(e) [4] (e is aphotoelectron energy) only intrashell correlations of Kr 4p6 -electrons in the random phase approximation with exchange (RPAE) were taken into account. The values of/3(e) obtained for the region near the threshold (e < I Ry) appeared to be in satisfactory agreement with the experimental data existing at that time as well as with single-particle Hartree—Fock calculations. However for higher photon energies w (w = e + I, I is the ionisation potential), the calculational and experimental data disagree, the measured value of /3(e) decreasing with increase of co much faster than the calculated one. It was assumed that this discrepancy is determined by essential influence of inter-

shell correlation, in particular by strong action of many-electron 3d10-subshell upon the ionized 4p6 one. This assumption was supported by the calculation of /3 performed later [6] for 5p6-subshell in Xe, where the account of inner 4d10-shell influence demonstrates the essential role of intershell correlations and leads to a prominent extra variation of /3, which was confirmed experimentally. Evidently, the strong effect of inner d10-shell upon the outer p6-electrons should be essential in Kr too and it must be taken into account in calculations of the 4p-photoelectrons angular distribution. The measurements of/3(e) performed recently [1, 2] have confirmed the previous data only at small energies, contradicting it essentially for w > 2 Ry. On the other hand, the dependence /3(e), calculated recently using the relativistic version of RPAE-RRPA [5] ,with inclusion of(4s + 4p + 3d) electron interactions is in satisfactory agreement with latest measurements [2] for the whole energy region considered in calculations [5]. To provide the possibility of understanding the role of intershell correlations only (without relativistic effects) we have calculated /3(e) for Kr 4p-electrons in nonrelativistic RPAE taking into consideration the effect of 4~2 and 3d10-subshells upon the ionized 4p6 -shell. The function /3(e) is determined by

tron 3d10-shell essentially alters the values j3 for w> 1.5 au. The correlations are especially strong for w 3.5 au, that corresponds to the 3d10-subshell ionization threshold. The account of intershell correlations leads in this energy region to an essential increase of /3 which then proves to be positive for the whole energy region considered, The comparison with other calculations [4,5] demonstrates that for w <2 au, intershell correlations and relativistic corrections are negligible. In the energy region 1.8 au 1.2 au allows to conclude that the data of [3] in this region are erroneous. 6The strong influence of 3d’°-upon ionized 4pnasubshell leads to the conclusion about collective ture of 4p-photoelectrons angular distribution at least for w > 2 au. The measured /3(e) can be satisfactory described using nonrelativistic RPAE method with

account of intra- and intershell correlations in the whole energy region where experimental data are available. However, the intershell correlations are especially strong for photon energies w ~ 3 au, where the 4p6-subshell photoelectron angular distribution totally appears to be subject to influence of 3d10shell. This statement is supported by the coincidence in this region between the existing experimental data [2] with the result of our calculations. References [1] J.L. Dehmer, W.A. Chypka, 1.
