Previous work on the phase-shifted version of the multichannel quantum-defect theory (MQDT) for a system involving 2 closed and many open channels (Lee, C.-W. Bull. Korean Chem. Soc. 2010, 31, 1669) was extended to obtain the formulae of the spectral shape parameters with the structure of a pole extracted explicitly for general cases only limited by 2 non-degenerate closed channels. The theory was applied to the narrow $6p_{1/2,3/2}np$ J = 1 autoionizing Rydberg series in barium perturbed by the $6p_{3/2}nf$ states obtained by de Graaff et al.

A previous study (Lee, C. W. J. Phys. B 2010, 43, 175002) that isolated the overlapping resonances in the photoionization spectra using multichannel quantum defect theory (MQDT) in systems involving a single open channel was extended to manage many open channels when the closed channels are degenerate. The theory was applied to the dipole allowed J = 1$^{\circ}$ spectra from the ground state with excitation energies lying between the lowest ionization thresholds for rare gas atoms, Ar, Kr, and Xe, and also for group IV elements, Ge, Sn and Pb.
