CSR上154 MeV/u C6+离子束分别入射Ti、V、Fe、Ni和Zn靶的X射线辐射

用电子冷却存储环(CSR)提供的能量为165 MeV/u的高能C6+脉冲束分别与Ti、V、Fe、Ni和Zn靶表面相互作用,测量了各靶辐射的K壳层X射线。结果表明,实验探测到各靶的K和K X射线均向高能区发生了不同程度的移动。经分析,X射线发生频移是由靶原子外壳层发生多电离引起的。通过计算各靶K壳层X射线的产生截面,发现该截面随原子序数的增加而减小。将各靶K-X射线产生截面的实验值分别与两体碰撞近似、平面波恩近似和ECPSSR理论值比较,发现现有理论与实验值存在偏差,要准确描述实验结果需要进一步修正。     

高能脉冲C~(6+)离子束激发Ni靶的K壳层X射线

精确测量离子与原子碰撞引起的靶原子内壳层电离截面,对研究原子内壳层过程以及建立合适的理论模型具有重要的意义.现有的实验数据和理论模型大都集中在中低能区,高能区由于受到实验条件的限制,几乎没有相关实验数据的报道,哪种理论更适合描述高能重离子入射的靶原子内壳层电离截面,还需要进行深入的实验研究.采用电子冷却存储环提供能量分别为165,300,350,430 MeV/u的C~(6+)离子束轰击Ni靶,测量Ni的K壳层X射线.分析了实验中探测到的Ni的K_β和K_α射线强度比,发现入射粒子能量的变化对该强度比影响不明显.分别应用两体碰撞近似(BEA)、平面波玻恩近似(PWBA)和ECPSSR理论对Ni的K壳层X射线的产生截面进行理论计算,并将理论结果与实验结果进行比较.

X-ray emission for Ar11+ ions impacting on various targets in the collisions near the Bohr velocity

X-ray emission from the collisions of 3 MeV Ar¹¹⁺ ions with V, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, and Zn is investigated. Both the x-rays of the target atom and projectile are observed simultaneously. The x-ray yield is extracted from the original count. The inner-shell ionization cross section is estimated by the binary encounter approximation model and compared with the experimental result. The remarkable result is that the Ar K-shell x-ray yield is diminished with the target atomic number increasing, which is completely opposite to the theoretical calculation. That is interpreted by the competitive consumption of the energy loss for the ionization of inner-shell electrons between the projectile and target atom.     

SEMI‐empirical and empirical formulas for calculation of K‐shell ionization cross sections by proton impact: a comparison

According to the plane wave Born approximation (PWBA) and the binary encounter approximation (BEA) models, it is possible to fit the cross sections obtained with any atomic element at any particle energy using a scaling law for a K‐shell. The semi‐empirical K‐shell ionization cross sections are then deduced by fitting the available experimental data normalized to their corresponding theoretical values. For the empirical K‐shell ionization cross sections, a third‐order polynomial was used to fit the same experimental data for protons. Our results are compared with the predictions of the ECPSSR theory and with other earlier works. Good agreement is obtained, but it is emphasized that the ultimate solution is to deduce the cross sections by fitting the available experimental data for each element separately.

L-Shell X-Ray Yields and Production Cross Sections of Zr and Mo Bombarded by Slow Highly Charged Ar16+ Ions

The L-shell x-ray yields of Zr and Mo bombarded by slow Ar16＋ ions are measured. The energy of the Ar^16＋ ions ranges from about 150 keV to 350 keV. The L-shell x-ray production cross sections of Zr and Mo are extracted from these yields data. The explanation of these experimental results is in the framework of the adiabatic direct- ionization and the binding energy modified BEA approximation. We consider, in the slow asymmetric collisions such as Ar and Mo/Zr, the transient united atoms （UA） are formed during the ion-surface interaction and the direct-ionization is the main mechanism for the inner-shell vacancy production. Generally, the theoretical results are in good agreement with the experimental data.     

Structure and thermal stability of AgCu chiral nanoparticles

Theoretical studies of electron impact double ionization cross sections of Ne⁵⁺ and Ne⁶⁺ ions have been performed in the binary encounter approximation (BEA). Direct double ionization (DDI) has been investigated in the modified double binary encounter model. The K-shell ionization cross sections have been also calculated in the BEA to take into account the contributions to double ionization from the ionization-autoionization (IA) process. The effect of the Coulombic field of the target ion on the incident electron has been considered in the present work. Accurate expression of σ _ΔE (cross section for energy transfer ΔE) and the Hartree-Fock (HF) velocity distributions for the target electrons have been used throughout the calculations. The present results are in overall moderate agreement with the experimental observations. Possible reasons behind the discrepancies between the theory and the experiment have been discussed.     

Energy dependence of the x-ray production cross sections of Cu and Ag for 150 to 800 keV proton and He+ bombardment

RelativeK-shell x-ray production cross sections have been measured for thin targets of Cu and Ag for proton and He⁺ impact in the energy range 150 to 800 keV. The experimental values are compared to the nonrelativistic plane wave Born approximation (PWBA), the PWBA with corrections for Coulomb deflection and binding effects (PWBABC), and the binary-encounter approximation (BEA). The PWBABC theory provides the best agreement with relative experimental cross sections. For protons, the agreement is within 2% for values of the scaled energy variableγ=η/(εθ)²>0.011; forψ<0.009, however, the deviation reaches about 10%. For helium a 10% deviation appears atγ～0.007. An explanation for these deviations is given.

Production of projectile and target K-vacancy in near-symmetric collisions of 60-100 MeV Cu9+ ions with thin Zn target

We report studies on both target and projectile K-shell ionization by collisions of Cu⁹⁺ ions on the thin Zn target in the energy range of 60-100 MeV. In this work, the relative ratio for the production of the target to projectile K-vacancy is measured. The result shows that it almost remains stable over this energy range and has good consistency with the predictions by vacancy transfer via the 2pσ-1sσ rotational coupling, which gives experimental evidence for K-vacancy sharing between two partners. Furthermore, the discussion for comparisons between the experimental ionization cross sections and the possible theoretical estimations is presented. These comparisons suggest that the experimental data agree well with those predicted by the Binary-Encounter approximation (BEA) model but are not in good agreement with the modified BEA calculations. It allows us to infer that the direct ionization (and/or excitation) is of importance to initial K-vacancy production before 2pσ-1sσ transitions in the present collision condition.     

1.0 MeV电子碰撞引起Ta 和Au 内壳电离截面的测量

无论对深入理解电子-原子的作用机制,还是在材料等领域的实际应用,电子轰击原子的内壳电离截面都具有重要意义。当前电子碰撞引起原子内壳电离的实验数据多集中在几十keV 入射能量和中小Z 靶原子,其它数据相对比较缺乏。本工作以能量为1.0 MeV电子轰击Ta 和Au 靶,通过测量靶原子特征X射线的产额,获得其K壳电离截面分别为13.3 和10.1 b,L 壳电离截面分别为554 和338 b。并将实验结果和相应的理论进行了对比,结果显示,本实验测得的K壳电离截面与Casnati、Hombourger 理论值、L 壳电离截面与Scoeld和Born-Bethe 的理论值相符。Accurate experimental data for atomic inner-shell ionization cross-sections by electrons are of basic importance both in understanding inelastic electron-atom interaction and its application. Up to now, most of available data on this process were mainly concentrated on the low and medium Z atoms by the bombardment of low energy electrons. In present experiments K-shell and L-shell ionization cross-sections of Ta and Au in collisions with 1.0 MeV eleltron were determined by measuring the characteristic X-rays emitted from the target atoms. For the present collision systems the K-shell ionization cross-sections were found to be 13.3 and 10.1 b,and the L-shell ionization cross sections were 554 and 338 b, respectively. The measured K-shell ionization cross sections are in reasonable agreement with the theoretic predictions of Casnati and Hombourger, while L-shell ionization cross sections are consistent with the theoretical results of Soc eld and Born-Bethey.     

K-shell x-ray spectroscopy of atomic nitrogen

Absolute K-shell photoionization cross sections for atomic nitrogen have been obtained from both experiment and state-of-the-art theoretical techniques. Because of the difficulty of creating a target of neutral atomic nitrogen, no high-resolution K-edge spectroscopy measurements have been reported for this important atom. Interplay between theory and experiment enabled identification and characterization of the strong 1s → np resonance features throughout the threshold region. An experimental value of 409.64±0.02 eV was determined for the K-shell binding energy.     

Inner-shell electron capture by impact of positron on the multi-electron atomic targets

The first-order Coulomb-Born approximation has been applied to the study of positronium formation through K-shell electron capture in the collision of positron with multi-electron atomic targets. The single-zeta Roothaan-Hartree-Fock wave functions are used to describe the electron initial bound states. The differential and total cross sections are computed for the impact of positron on helium, carbon, neon, sodium and argon atoms, with the formation of positronium in its ground state. For helium atoms, the calculated total cross sections are compared with the available experimental data and other theoretical calculations. The comparison shows a good agreement between the present calculations and the measurements.

K-shell ionization of atoms and ions by relativistic projectiles

We evaluate the total cross section for the single K-shell ionization of atoms and ions by the impact of relativistic electrons. The study is performed to leading orders of the QED perturbation theory with respect to the parameters αZ and 1/Z. The results obtained are in good agreement with experimental data for different atomic targets. In the case of moderate values of the nuclear charge Z, the total cross section is described by a simple analytic formula. The K-shell ionization by relativistic heavy particles is also considered.
