Abstract  A 40-target state close-coupling calculation for the photodetachment cross section of negative atomic oxygen near threshold is carried out with core-valence electron correlation by using the R-matrix method. It was shown that after considering the excitations of two electrons from the 2s shell, the electron affinity of O$^-$ (2s$^2$2p$^5$ $^2$P°) agrees with the experimental result much better than that just considering the excitations of electrons only from the 2p shell as well as only one electron from the 2s shell. Total cross section as well as the main contribution of the ionization channels to the partial cross section are illustrated to show the structure near threshold clearly.
Keywords:  electron correlation      photodetachment      electron affinities
