The effects of electric fields of intensity up to about 10 kVcm -1 on the autoionising resonances buying between the 2 P 3/2 and 2 P 1/2 ionisation limits in Xe have been studied in absorption. Fields of this strength produce pronounced effects on series members for n>11 The major effects are a decrease in transmission in the neighbourhood of the resonances and a lowering of the classical field ionisation potential.
