The calculations predict distinct non-dipole effects in the region of the Cooper minimum in argon at photon energies around 50 eV, where they are of similar importance as at photon energies of more than 500 eV. The non-dipole effects should therefore be clearly observable in experiments performed at the present x-ray free electron lasers.</p> 2013-08-13 00:00:00 xuv rpa photon energies ar 3 p shell 2 p shell Atomic Physics Molecular Physics
