Abstract
The alignment of the 5p4 6p levels after the decay of the Xe I 4d95/2 6p(J = 1) resonance was investigated experimentally and theoretically. The angular distribution of the visible fluorescence radiation was used to measure the alignment. To calculate the measured quantities the multi-step model was applied, taking account of the relativistic effects within the Pauli-Fock approximation. The influence of the cascade effects on the population of the 5p4 6p levels was estimated.
