Anion and cation-yield spectroscopy of core-excited SF6.
We report an extensive study on total and partial-ion-yield spectroscopy around both the S 2p and F 1s thresholds in SF(6). All positive and negative single-ion channels have been measured. Below the F 1s threshold we detect a large variation in relative intensity of the resonant structures according to the specific channel monitored, indicating selective fragmentation. Above threshold, at variance with previous cases described by us, we detect high-intensity structures related to shape resonances not only in the cation channels but also for the anions. We discuss the applicability and limits of a model we have developed for the analysis of shape resonances in anion yields as a function of molecular size.
