Abstract
The bound-state pair-absorption bands Cs(62 S 1/2)+Cs(62 S 1/2)+h v→Cs(52 D 5/2,3/2) +Cs(62 P 1/2) and the K — K continuum-state pair-absorptions in the wavelength region 2,350≦λ≦2,850 Å have been investigated experimentally. In the case of the bound-state pair-absorption bands a theoretical approach for the absorption cross section at the band centre is given which is in good agreement with the experimental observation. Differences between our and the theoretical formulas given by the Stanford group are discussed.
