In this work we report the modification of the normal Auger line shape under the action of an intense x-ray radiation. Under strong Rabi-type coupling of the core, the Auger line profile develops into a doublet structure with an energy…
Core excitons in solids have garnered increasing interest, yet their behavior and decay mechanisms are not fully understood. Here, we use attosecond extreme ultraviolet (XUV) transient absorption spectroscopy, performed with a broadband…
