| Abstract: | The main properties of longitudinal and transverse electric field ionizers for fast Rydberg atoms n=21–40 have been investigated. The dispersion and the background due to collisional processes between fast atoms and residual gas molecules have been measured and calculated. The kinetic energy spread of ions formed by field ionization of Rydberg atoms and their trajectories have been calculated. The potassium beam energy was 3.9 keV. |
