LETTER TO THE EDITOR

We have measured the photoionization-excitation-to-photoionization ratio for (n = 2 - 6) at several photon energies from 90 to 900 eV. By extrapolating these values we could determine the asymptotic high-energy ratios for (n = 2 - 5) which agree with theoretical predictions. We show that the satellite-to-main-line ratios are consistent with experimental double-to-single photoionization ratios and agree well with recent measurements.
