The nonresonant, three-photon ionization spectrum of atomic Xe in the region between the ${\mathrm{Xe}}^{+}$ $^{2}\mathrm{}_{3/2}$ and $^{2}\mathrm{}_{1/2}$ fine-structure limits is reported. Using linearly polarized light, four autoionizing Rydberg series are observed converging to the ${\mathrm{Xe}}^{+}$ $^{2}\mathrm{}_{1/2}$ limit, corresponding to ${(}^{2}$ P\ifmmode^\circ\else\textdegree\fi{} ${\mathrm{}}_{1/2}$ )ns'[(1/2)]\ifmmode^\circ\else\textdegree\fi{} ${\mathrm{}}_{1}$ , (2P\ifmmode^\circ\else\textdegree\fi{} ${\mathrm{}}_{1/2}$ )nd'[(3/2)]\ifmmode^\circ\else\textdegree\fi{} ${\mathrm{}}_{1}$ , ${(}^{2}$ P\ifmmode^\circ\else\textdegree\fi{} ${\mathrm{}}_{1/2}$ )nd'[(5/2)]\ifmmode^\circ\else\textdegree\fi{} ${\mathrm{}}_{3}$ , and ${(}^{2}$ P\ifmmode^\circ\else\textdegree\fi{} ${\mathrm{}}_{1/2}$ )ng'[(7/2)]\ifmmode^\circ\else\textdegree\fi{} ${\mathrm{}}_{3}$ ; as expected, using circularly polarized light only the J=3 series are observed.
