Cover Story: We report measurements of the absolute photoionization cross sections for the Cl+ , Cl2+ , Cl3+ and Cl4+ chlorine ions over photon energy ranges corresponding to L-shell excitation. The measurements were performed on the PLÉIADES beamline at the SOLEIL synchrotron, using the Multi-Analysis Ion Apparatus (MAIA). Resonance energies and line strengths are provided, and the evolution of the inner shell photoionization behavior is demonstrated for the chlorine ions as the degree of ionization is increased. While dominated by photoionization from the corresponding ground state ions, the photoion yields may also contain contributions from low-lying metastable states. The results provide useful data on these ions for plasma modelling and can serve as benchmarking experimental data for future atomic theoretical calculations. View this paper

Inspired by the well-known experimental connections between X(3872), Zcs(4220), and Y(4620), we systematically study the recently reported strange partner of Tcc, the 1+ccq¯s¯ system, and its orbital excitation state 1ccq¯s¯...

The potential energy curves and spectroscopic constants of the ground and several low-lying excited states of the Caq+-Kr (q = 0, 1, 2) van der Waals complexes were investigated using one- and two-electron pseudopotential approaches. This treatment e...

We present a general procedure to describe the dynamics of N degenerate quantized fields interacting resonantly with a two–level atom, all coupled with the same strength, within the rotating–wave approximation. Starting from the analysis...

We explore the physical quantum properties of atoms in fractal spaces, both as a theoretical generalization of normal integer-dimensional Euclidean spaces and as an experimentally realizable setting. We identify the threshold of fractality at which E...
