title = "Many-Body Theory of Auger Processes in Metals and Semiconductors",
abstract = "Auger spectra of solids arise from radiationless decay of innershell vacancies created by x-ray or electron bombardment. In a corevalence-valence (CVV) Auger process, for instance, one valence electron is filling the core hole while another valence electron is ejected and carries away the excess energy. The core hole is essentially dispersionless, and thus the spectrum of emitted electrons would, in the simplest one-electron picture, reflect the self-folded valence-electron state density. Such a simple model is, of course, grossly oversimplified, and the importance of matrix element effects has been demonstrated by several authors.1 However, no detailed investigation of many-body effects has been presented thus far for sp-bonded materials, and the current view is that one electron theory and bulk wavefunctions suffice to explain the experimental results.",
