• Pierre Auger, 1923
• Atom response to deep-lying hole:
– Excitation (create hole)– Relaxation (emit electron)

• Measure N(E)
• Report dN(E)/dE– Small peaks– Large background– Background increases with energy
• Peak height in dN(E) spectrum peak area in N(E)

• The shape and the fine structure of a peak is related to the local density of states adjacent to the atom

Qualitative analysis
• Peak position
– Compare to table:
– Check by changing the primary energy (does the peak shift?)
– Primary energy > Auger energies
• Peak shape
