    Abstract

    Angular correlation pattern in two-electron continuum is very similar in double photoionization (DPI) of a neutral atom γ + A → A2+ + 2e- and electron-impact ionization of the corresponding singly charged ion e- + A+ → A2+ + 2e -. This allows us to identify and interpret interference effects in DPI of various L-shell atomic targets such as the metastable He * 1s 2s 1S and the ground state Li 1s22s and Be 1s22s2.
