Abstract
In this chapter the numerical methods developed to evaluate the relative intensities, angular distribution and spin polarization parameters are discussed. Common to all parameters is the numerical calculation of Auger transition amplitudes. From the previous chapter we learned that the investigation of angle and spin resolved Auger processes is connected with the determination of anisotropy parameters. The main numerical difficulty in the calculation of anisotropy parameters for Auger transitions is that they are not only functions of the transition amplitudes but of the scattering phases, too. Their explicit knowledge is therefore crucial for the calculation of numerical data.
