Photoionization of Ce$^{3+}$ - Ce$^{4+}$

Photoionization of the Ce$^{3+}$ - Ce$^{4+}$ process has been studied using the random phase approximation with exchange method in the energy region 100-150 eV. Comparison of our results with the recent measurement [Müller {\it et al}, Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 101}, 133001 (2008)] confirms the suppression effect of the carbon cage in the endohedral fullerene Ce@C$_{82}^+$ photoionization. The reasons for the cause of the confinement resonance and the suppression effect are discussed.
