Aluminium atoms undergoing soft X-ray irradiation produce multiply-ionized ions in excited states through inner-shell photoionization followed by radiationless transitions, i.e. Auger cascades. Photoionization of 2s-, 2p- and 3s subshells are considered for the 80 eV to 1 keV incident photon energy range. Photoionization cross sections, shake probabilities and Auger and Coster-Kronig rates are evaluated in various approximations. Al II, Al III, and Al IV UV lines are directly produced independently of local temperature and electron density. Monopole shake up/off and conjugate shake up excitations are important over a large energy interval beyond the L thresholds.
