Abstract

A pronounced quadrupole emission effect is theoretically predicted in terms of the contact interaction operator in resonant inelastic scattering of two X-ray photons near the ionization threshold energy of the 1s shell of a free multielectron atom. The observed double differential scattering cross section is estimated quantitatively.
