SHAKE-ON AND SHAKE-OFF SATELLITES

Shake-on and shake-off satellites arise because a vacancy is created during core level excitation. The vacancy diminishes the screening of the nuclei and therefore makes its potential higher. During relaxation, a part of the energy can go into valence electrons excitation, and the latter can go to some higher vacant or unbound state. The N(E) spectrum can have therefore not only the major IL but also the shake-on and shake-off satellites with the energy losses greater than required for the major IL excitation [Ref 3].
