"Autoionization of very-high-n strontium Rydberg atoms." <i>Journal of Physics: Conference Series,</i> 875, (2017) IOP Publishing: https://doi.org/10.1088/1742-6596/875/3/022001.https://hdl.handle.net/1911/97391The autoionization of high n, n~280-430, strontium Rydberg states through excitation of the 5s 2S1/2→5p 2P1/2 transition in the core ion is investigated. The autoionization rates decrease rapidly as L is increased paving the way for production of long-lived two-electron-excited planetary atoms.engContent from this work may be used under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 licence.
