Stark broadening of isolated lines emitted by singly-ionized tin

Calculations have been performed on the electron impact broadening of isolated lines from singly-ionized tin from a cool plasma. These have been compared with results of measurements recently performed by Miller, Roig, and Bengtson on a plasma produced by a conventional shock tube, and satisfactory overall agreement has been obtained. Our method is similar in procedure to that of the semi-empirical approximation of Griem, but we take into account the details of the radiator structure, including configuration interaction for two of the terms. We propose a new expression from which the relevant effective Gaunt factors for singly-charged ions can be calculated for incident energies above threshold. In some cases, a significant variation of line width within multiplets is noted. Some difficulties have been experienced with transitions to states involving equivalent electrons.

On the variation of spectral line widths within stark-broadened multiplets

The Stark broadening of isolated ion lines is considered in the electron impact approximation. It is shown by an elementary formulation of the theory that, under certain plasma conditions, situations may arise in complex atoms where a relatively small number of collision-induced transitions predominate in the broadening, and consequently where appreciable variations of spectral line width are obtained within multiplets. Such lines are then particularly suitable for application of the Stark-broadening mechanism as a means of studying atomic structure and collision physics.     

Neon 3p-excitation by proton impact (100 keV-1 MeV): Cross sections and line polarization

The excitation of all ten levels of the neon 2p ⁵3p configuration by proton impact (100 keV-1 MeV) has been investigated by the spectral analysis of photon emission. Absolute emission cross sections have been obtained by calibration with a standard light source. Cascade effects are shown to be very important especially in the case ofJ=1 levels. For the 3p(¹ S ₀) level, which we studied additionally for electron impact excitation (100 eV-1 keV), our experimental cross sections are compared with the first Born approximation. Furthermore the polarization of sixteen 3p—3s emission lines has been measured as a function of impact energy. The energy dependence of the line polarization is characterized by theJ quantum numbers of the atomic states involved in the respective transition. An anomalous polarization of all lines originating from the decay ofJ=1 levels has been found and is referred to dominant cascade effects.     

On the temperature dependence of self-broadening in the first overtone band of CO

The halfwidths of CO spectral lines have been measured in the 2-0 band at 298, 198, 131, and 85 K using a high resolution spectrometer. The temperature dependence of the linewidths has been calculated by applying two semi-classical theories developed within the impact approximation. The theoretical results are compared with experimental data.     

共面双对称条件下电子碰撞Ar原子单电离的一阶扭曲波Born近似

在共面双对称几何条件下,利用一阶扭曲波Born近似计算了中低能电子碰撞Ar原子(3p壳层电子)单电离的三重微分截面,并与最近的实验数据做了比较.结果表明,对于Ar原子,当入射电子能量比电离阈高40 eV以上,随着入射能量的增加,binary和recoil碰撞机理逐渐占据支配地位;在近阈能量范围,上述碰撞机理不再处于支配地位,扭曲效应明显.要完备地描述中低能入射条件下Ar原子的电子碰撞电离过程,理论模型必须同时考虑多种散射机理.

Self-consistent Green's function theory for interacting electrons in a random potential

A new set of self-consistent equations is proposed for the calculation of the disorder and Coulomb contributions to the electron self-energy and the electron-hole interaction in a many-electron system in the presence of a site-diagonal random potential. The treatment of the disorder is along the lines of the coherent-potential approximation. An explicit expression for the Coulomb self-energy is derived within the time-dependent screened Hartree-Fock approximation. Some possible applications of the formalism to the formation of a Coulomb gap in a doped semiconductor and to electron-hole interaction effects in the optical spectra of alloy semiconductor systems are discussed.Dedicated to B.

Electron impact double ionization of Ba and Ba+

Electron impact double ionization cross-sections for Ba and Ba⁺ have been calculated in the binary encounter approximation. Hartree-Fock velocity distribution has been used for the first ejected electron and a hydrogenic velocity distribution for the second. For Ba⁺ the focusing effects of the target ion on the incident electron have been incorporated in the calculations. Contributions from ionization-autoionization to the ionization cross-sections, as observed in experiments, have been included in the present work. The calculated results show structures as observed in recent experiments.

Theoretical calculation of triple differential cross sections of 3s orbital of argon in coplanar symmetric （e, 2e） reaction

The triple differential cross section for the low-energy electron impact ionization of inner-valence 3s orbital of argon has been calculated using the modified distorted wave Born approximation in coplanar symmetric energy-sharing geometry. Satisfactory agreement between theory and experiraent is achieved when the polarization and post-collisional interaction (PCI) are included in the calculations. It is shown that the polarization and PCI effects play a very important role in the case of argon at low incident energies.     

Triple differential cross-sections for the fast electron/positron impact ionization of hydrogen and helium in the Glauber approximation

Triple differential cross-section for electron and positron impact ionization of hydrogen and helium are calculated by using the Glauber approximation along with post-collision interaction effects which are estimated classically. The present results are compared with the recent absolute data of Ehrhardt, Jung and coworkers for the electron impact case. The positron impact case is found to lead to a larger binary to recoil peak maxima ratio (compared to the electron impact case) which further increases when post-collision interaction effects are included.     

Effect of crystal potential on electric field gradient calculations due to impurities in cubic metals

The electric field gradients caused by interstitial and substitutional point defects in f.c.c. metals have been studied. The perturbation on the host electron distribution has been calculated self-consistently using density functional formalism. The effect of strain caused by size difference between host and impurity atoms is treated in the point-ion model. The influence of the host potential on impurity perturbation is incorporated within the spherical solid approximation. The theory is applied to positive muon and mono-vacancy in Al and Cu hosts. The theoretical results are in good agreement with experiment and illustrate the importance of both strain and conduction electron contribution to the electric field gradient.     

Temporal relaxation of plasma electrons acted upon by directcurrent electric and magnetic fields

On the basis of the time-dependent electron Boltzmann equation the temporal relaxation of the electrons in the presence of electric and magnetic fields in weakly ionized, collision dominated plasmas has been studied. The relaxation process is treated by using a strict time-dependent two-term approximation of the velocity distribution function expansion in spherical harmonics. A new technique for solving the time-dependent electron kinetic equation in this two-term approximation for arbitrary angles between the electric and magnetic fields has been developed and the main aspects of the efficient solution method are presented. Using this new approach and starting from steady-state plasmas under the action of time-independent electric fields only, the impact of superimposed DC magnetic fields on the electron relaxation is analyzed with regard to the control of a neon plasma. The investigations reveal an important effect of the magnetic field on the temporal relaxation process. In particular, it has been found that the relaxation time of the electron component with respect to the establishment of steady-state can be enlarged by some orders of magnitude when increasing the magnetic field strength     

Photoelectron angular distributions at the ionization of atoms by intense sub-one-cycle laser pulses

The phase sensitivity of the photoelectron angular distributions by intense sub-one-cycle linearly polarized laser pulses has been discussed within the analytic Landau-Dykhne approximation. In both cases of sine and cosine laser pulses most of the electrons are ejected along the polarization axis of the laser field. Nevertheless the electron yield and the electron kinetic energies are much larger for the cosine waveform pulse.

TheK Auger spectrum of the free magnesium atom

TheK Auger spectrum of free Mg atoms has been investigated with an electrostatic energy analyzer at an energy resolution of 0.16%.

The experimental energies and relative group intensities of the normal lines agree well with theoretical values. The total intensity of special classes of satellites are compatible with calculations of the shake theory within the sudden approximation.
