Abstract

The helium double photoionization is a fundamental three-body Coulomb problem and, as such, has been at the forefront of atomic physics for the past thirty years. It has attracted considerable theoretical and experimental attention and substantial progress has been made in understanding the complex process of the breakup into three charged particles.
