摘要: In a recent XUV photoabsorption spectrum of Cs III ions by Cummings and O'Sullivan [2001 {\em J. Phys.} B {\bf 34} 199], rather large linewidths were found for the ${\rm 4d}^{\,9} {\rm 5s}^2 {\rm 5p}^6 \,- \,{\rm 4d}^{\,10} {\rm 5s}^2 {\rm 5p}^5$ transition which are quite in disagreement with corresponding quasi-relativistic multiconfiguration Hartree--Fock (MCHF) calculation. In the present work, a detailed multiconfiguration Dirac-Fock study has been carried out to explore this discrepancy. Owing to the detailed consideration of electron correlation effects, some 'forbidden' Auger decay channels, such as ${\rm 4d}^{\,10} {\rm 5s}^2 {\rm 5p}^3 {\rm 5d} $ and ${\rm 4d}^{\,10} {\rm 5s}^0 {\rm 5p}^6 $, would become `open'. As a result, remarkable improvement of the linewidths has been obtained in our calculation. Furthermore, the theoretical Auger spectrum of the ${\rm 4d}^{\,9} {\rm 5s}^2 {\rm 5p}^6$ core-excited states of Cs III ions is given in the present work.
