Variation of Cross-Section Enhancement in Decay Spectra of CO under Resonant Raman Conditions

We have measured participator and spectator decay at several photon energies within the range of the lifetime-broadened first vibrational component of the C 1s->?* resonance in CO. From the branching ratios it is evident that the resonant enhancement is different for single-hole and two-hole-one-electron states: The maximum in the resonant intensity peaks at different photon energies. It now becomes necessary to calculate energy-dependent transition matrix elements within the lifetime-broadening range.
