Physical Review A

Effect of higher multipole transitions in the two-photon decay spectrum of metastable hydrogen

C. K. Au

Published Jul 1, 1976• 26 citations
Publisher

Abstract

It is pointed out that inclusion of the effects of higher multipole transitions leads to an asymmetry in the angular distribution of the two-photon decay spectrum of metastable hydrogen.Received 8 March 1976DOI:https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevA.14.531©1976 American Physical Society
