The spectra of the autoionizing states of xenon have been measured at high (505, 2019) eV and low (24–60) eV incident electron energies and ejection angle at 90° using high-resolution electron spectroscopy. A wealth of peaks and dips which correspond to the singly, doubly excited states, and slow Auger electrons are detected in the kinetic energy region (3–14) eV in the spectrum measured at 505 eV. Each feature is analyzed systematically, the energy and assignment are defined in comparison with corresponding structures reported in literature. The main attention has been focused to obtain energies of the triplet states less known from literature. Energies of the triplet 5s5p6 (6s, 7s, 6p, 5d) states are obtained combining the data from high and low incident energies. In addition, angular dependence of the features at low incident energies 24, 26 and 30 eV are presented.
