Multiple ionization of argon accompanied by electron loss and capture of 0.22-6.35 MeV C^q＋ ions

In this paper a projectile ions recoil ions coincidence technique is employed to investigate the target ionization and projectile charge state changing processes in the collision of 0.22-6.35 MeV Cq^＋ （q = 1 - 4） ions with argon atoms. The partial cross section ratios of the double, triple, quadruplicate ionization to the single ionization （or the single capture） of argon associated with single electron loss （or single electron capture） by the projectile are measured and compared with the previous experimental results. In the present experiment, it is observed that the ratios of ionization cross sections R associated with single loss and single capture depend strongly on the projectile charge state and vary significantly with different reaction channels as impact energy increases. In addition, this paper gets empirical scaling laws for the ionization cross section ratios R corresponding to the projectile single loss and finds that the ratios of the double ionization to the single ionization associated with single electron capture remain constant in the present energy range.     

Double Electron Processes in Collisions of Partially Stripped Ions C^q＋ （q = 1-4） with Helium

The multi-electron processes are investigated for 17.9-120 keV/u C^1＋, 30-323 keV/u C^2＋, 120-438 keV/u ^C3＋, 287-480 keV/u C^4＋ incident on a helium target. The cross-section ratios of double electron （DE） process to the total of the single electron （SE） and the double electron process （i.e. SE＋DE）, the direct double electron （DDI） to the direct single ionization （DSI） as well as the contributions of DDI to DE and of TI to DE are measured using coincidence techniques. The energy and charge state dependences of the measured cross-section ratios are studied and discussed.     

Multiple ionization of Ne induced by 10keV/u-500keV/u C~(q+)(q=13)ions

The values of cross-section ratio Rk1 of direct k-fold ionization cross section(σk) to direct single ionization cross section(qσ1) of Ne impacted by C+(q = 1–3) ions in an energy range of 10 ke V/u–500 ke V/u are measured in this work.The experimental data are compared with the results from our multi-electron classical over-barrier ionization(ME-COBI)model,showing that the model can give a good estimate to the experimental data.     

Ionization and single electron capture in collision of highly charged Ar16+ ions with helium

This paper uses the two-centre atomic orbital close-coupling method to study the ionization and the single electron capture in collision of highly charged Ar^16＋ ions with He atoms in the velocity range of 1.2-1.9 a.u.. The relative importance of single ionization （SI） to single capture （SC） is explored. The comparison between the calculation and experimental data shows that the SI/SC cross section ratios from this work are in good agreement with experimental data. The total single electron ionization cross sections and the total single electron capture cross sections are also given for this collision. The investigation of the partial electron capture cross section shows a general tendency of capture to larger n and l with increasing velocity from 1.2 to 1.9 a.u..     

Electron—impact ionization of Li^＋（ls^2） in the coplanar equal energy—sharing geometry

In this paper, the triple differential cross section for the low-energy electron impact ionization of the Li⁺ ion is considered in the coplanar equal energy-sharing kinematics at an incident energy of 114.083 eV. The emergence of structures in the calculated cross sections is explained in terms of isolated two-body final-state interactions and three-body coupling. The cross section shows two peaks originating from ′classical′ is determined by two-body final-state interactions. In addition, it is demonstrated that the signature of three-body interactions is carried by the magnitude and ratio of these two peaks. The direct and exchange amplitudes are also considered.     

L-Shell X-Ray Production Cross Sections of Au and Ir Atoms by Electron Impact near the Threshold Region

L-shell production cross sections Lα, Lβ and Lγ for Au and Ir atoms have been measured by electron impact at incident electron energies of about one to three times of the threshold energy. The total production cross section and mean ionization cross section were obtained from the experimental results and by using mean fluorescence yield, respectively. The influence of electrons reflected from the substrate and multiple electron scattering inside the target have been corrected. The experimental results are compared with the existing measured results and the theoretical predictions.     

Magnetic phase transition and the corresponding magnetostriction of intermetallic compounds RMnsGe2（R=Sm,Gd）

The temperature dependence of lattice constants a and c of intermetallic compounds RMn₂Ge₂ (R=Sm, Gd) is measured in the temperature range 10－800K by using the x-ray diffraction method. The magnetoelastic anomalies of lattice constants are found at the different kinds of spontaneous magnetic transitions. The transversal and longitudinal magnetostrictions of polycrystalline samples are measured in the pulse magnetic field up to 25T. In the external magnetic field there occurs a first-order field-induced antiferromagnetism－ferromagnetism transition in the Mn sublattice, which gives rise to a large magnetostriction. The magnitude of magnetostrictions is as large as 10^-3. The transversal and longitudinal magnetostrictions have the same sign and are almost equal. This indicates that the magnetostriction is isotropic and mainly caused by the interlayer Mn－Mn exchange interaction. The experimental results are explained in the framework of a two-sublattice ferrimagnet with the negative exchange interaction in one of the sublattices by taking into account the lattice constant dependence of interlayer Mn－Mn exchange interaction.     

L-Shell X-Ray Production Cross Sections of Ta and Tm by Electron Impact near the Threshold Region

We present experimental measurements of L-shell production cross sections Lα, Lβ and Lγ for tantalum and thulium by electron impact at incident electron energies from about one to three times the threshold energy. From the experimental data, the total production cross section and mean ionization cross section are deduced. The influence of electrons reflected from the substrate is corrected by the electron transport bipartition model. Tile measured cross sections are compared with the theoretical predictions.     

CTMC Investigation of Capture and Ionization Processes in P+H(1s) Collisions in Strong Transverse Magnetic Fields

The collision processes of proton with H(1s) atoms, which is embedded in strong transverse magnetic fields perpendicular to the initial velocity of the projectile, are studied with the classical trajectory Monte Carlo method in the energy range 25 keV /u–2000 keV /u and B ～ 104 T. It is found that the charge exchange cross section is decreased while the ionization cross section is increased significantly. The physics of magnetic field effects is analyzed by the time evolution of electron energy and trajectories, and it is found that these effects are induced by the diamagnetic term in the interaction, continuum electron trapping in the target regions and the Lorentz force. The velocity distributions of the ionized electrons, significantly influenced by the applied fields, are also presented.
