The five-fold differential cross sections have been seperated in terms of singlet–singlet and singlet–triplet transitions during the double ionization of the K-shell electrons of atoms. This type of study has led us to unravel the interesting spin interplay of the ejected electrons and their higher degree of dependence with their kinematical arrangements in the continuum state. Various geometrical arrangements are identified wherein the important relative contributions of the singlet and triplet terms are found. The singlet contribution for the back-to-back emission of the ejected electrons is found to be smaller for the Ca atom, however, on the other hand, it becomes the dominating term for the Xe atom and is isotropic in nature. We also observe that the parallel spin orientation of the ejected electrons is more favourable for the perpendicular emission of the ejected electrons (i.e., when θ<sub>1</sub> = θ<sub><em>q</em></sub> and θ<sub>2</sub> = θ<sub><em>q</em></sub> − 90°) and it remains the dominant term regardless of the energy sharing ratio of the ejected electrons. All of the singlet and triplet transitions depend on the emission direction of the ejected electrons as well as on their energies.</p> 2013-09-05 00:00:00 continuum state figure 2 emission direction electron triplet terms triplet transitions Xe atom Xe atoms singlet contribution Mo atom kinematical arrangements Atomic Physics Molecular Physics
