Abstract
In this paper we report the experimental evidence of a double-electron excitation involving two deep core states in the X-ray absorption coefficient of a solid amorphous system. For the first time a fine structure (EXAFS) in a double-electron excitation cross section has been identified. Such feature has unambiguously allowed us to assign the dominant excitation channel to a (1s,2p) → (3p,epsilonp) shake-up transition.
