Electron impact optical excitation of helium-like ions in Coulomb-Glauber approximation

The Coulomb-Glauber approximation is applied to evaluate the electron-impact excitation integrated cross sections for 1¹ S —n ¹ P (n=2, 3) transitions in helium-like ions, C⁴⁺, N⁵⁺, O⁶⁺ and Ne⁸⁺. The results are presented in terms of scaled collision strengthn ³ Z ² k _i ² σ and scaled integrated cross-sectionZ ⁴σ. Our values when compared with other available theoretical results are found to be larger than the Coulomb-Born and distorted wave polarised orbital (DWPO) values.     

Two-electron excitation of calcium, strontium, and barium atoms on exposure to electron impact

The absolute effective excitation cross-sections for the spectral transitions of alkaline-earth atoms under the action of electron impact are determined, which correspond to simultaneous excitation of s²-valence electrons. The results were obtained on a setup with intersecting atomic and electron beams. It is established that the effective cross-sections of one- and two-electron excitation of valence subshells into states with the same effective principal and orbital quantum numbers are equal. The results obtained are compared with the available theoretical data. Institute of Electron Physics, National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, 21 Universitetskaya St., Uzhgorod, 294016, Ukraine.

Dissociative excitation of the fluoromethanes by electron impact

Emission spectra following electron impact on molecules of the homologous series of fluoromethanes CH_xF_4-x with x=0-4 have been investigated from the near infrared at 700 nm to the ultraviolet VUV-spectral region at 100 nm. Earlier experimental data for the visible and ultraviolet spectral region were revised and evaluated again on the basis of reliable new data for the dynamic viscosity of the molecules. The measurement of absolute and relative cross-sections were systematically extended into the VUV region from 100 nm to 200 nm. The examination of atomic lines as well as molecular band systems in the VUV gives further insight into the dissociation mechanism and shows that many excited levels even of atomic and molecular species cannot be populated directly, but only by transitions from higher-lying energy levels. Simple steric effects can be distinguished from more complex transition phenomena. Received: 25 February 1998 / Revised: 29 May 1998 and 18 June 1998 / Accepted: 23 June 1998     

Radiative rates and electron impact excitation rate coefficients for H-like Fe XXVI

In this paper we report on calculations on energy levels, radiative rates, collision strengths, and effective collision strengths for transitions among the lowest 36 levels of the n≤6 configurations of H-like Fe XXVI. Flexible atomic code (FAC) is adopted for the calculation. Energy levels and radiative rates are calculated within relativistic configuration-interaction method. Direct excitation collision strength is calculated using relativistic distorted-wave approximation. Resonance contributions through the relevant He-like doubly excited n^′l^′n^″l^″ configurations with n^′≤7 and n^″≤75 are explicitly taken into account using the isolated process and isolated resonances approximation. We present the radiative rates, oscillator strengths, and line strengths for all electric dipole (E1), magnetic dipole (M1), electric quadrupole (E2), and magnetic quadrupole (M2) transitions among the 36 levels. Furthermore, collision strengths and effective collision strengths are reported for all the 630 transitions among the above 36 levels over a wide energy (temperature) range up to 25 keV . Extensive comparisons are made with earlier available results and the accuracy of the data is assessed.     

电子与类铍N3+和O4+离子碰撞激发截面的相对论扭曲波计算

采用全相对论扭曲波方法,系统地计算了类铍N³⁺和 O⁴⁺离子从基态到2s2p和2p² 的各激发态以及从亚稳态到2p²各激发态的电子碰撞激发截面,详细地讨论了靶态的关联效应对激发截面的影响.结果表明：对于2s-2p的单电子激发,在低能碰撞时,靶态的电子关联效应起非常重要的作用,且使得激发截面降低;而高能碰撞时,靶态波函数的描述对连续态波函数的影响比较小,对激发截面影响也比较小.对于2s²-2p²的双电子激发,其中基态2s²¹S₀到J=0的2p²³P₀,¹S₀的激发截面较大,其主要原因是末离子态波函数与基组态波函数的混合,但是其他几个激发的激发截面较小. 关键词： 全相对论扭曲波方法 电子碰撞激发 电子关联效应     

Two-electron excitations in helium-like ions by inelastic photon scattering

Inelastic photon scattering by helium atoms and helium-like ions with simultaneous excitation of the two-electron transition 1s ²→2s ² is examined in the nonrelativistic energy range I≪ω≪m (I is the ionization potential, ω is the photon energy, m is the electron mass, and ℏ=c=1). The electrons are assumed to be moving in the Coulomb field of the nucleus, and the electron-electron interaction is taken into account in the lowest perturbation order. The differential and total cross sections of the process and the autoionization width of the 2s ² energy level are calculated. The numerical value of the autoionization width is found to agree with the results of the more rigorous calculations of other researchers. Zh. éksp. Teor. Fiz. 113, 539–549 (February 1998)     

Effect of distortion in electron impact excitation in Coulomb-projected Born approximation

We have calculated total and differential cross-sections for 1s →ns (n = 2, 3, 4) electron impact excitation of hydrogen and hydrogenic ions at various energies in Coulomb-projected Born approximation. Distortion due to static interactions, target polarization and exchange effects has been incorporated in the initial channel. The present calculations have been compared with other theoretical and experimental results.     

Resonant electron impact excitation of highly charged Fe ions studied with a compact electron beam ion trap

We present extreme ultraviolet spectra of 3s3p–3s3d transitions in Fe¹⁴⁺ observed with a compact electron beam ion trap. The contributions of indirect excitation via a metastable state and resonant excitation are studied by observing the electron energy dependence of the spectra for the energy range of 60–210 eV. The results indicate that the 3s3d ¹D₂ level is directly excited from the 3s² ground state whereas the 3s3d ³D₃ level has a large contribution of the indirect excitation via the 3s3p ³P₂ metastable state. Comparisons with the theoretical excitation cross sections including MNn resonant excitations show good qualitative agreement with the experimental results for the electron energy dependent features.

Ionization of metastable H(2S) atom by electron and positron impact

Summary Triple differential cross-section (TDCS) of hydrogen atom in its metastable (2S) state is studied theoretically by electron and positron impact for coplanar and asymmetric geometry. The final-state wave function in the present model satisfies the asymptotic boundary condition for asymmetric geometry (i.e. fork ₁≫k ₂). In the absence of experiment, present results are compared with other existing theoretical results. Apart from the double-peaked structure of the TDCS as in ground-state ionization, some interesting secondary structures are found, in conformity with other theories for ionization from 2S state.     

Mutual electron-ion interactions in electron impact ionization of a Ca beam

Summary We evaluate the role of electron-ion mutual interactions as a possible source of systematic errors in an experiment of electron impact ionization and excitation of an effusive Ca beam. By monitoring photons resulting from the impact excitation of a Ca resonant transition, the transmitted electron beam current by a sectored Faraday cup and total ion yields, we extract information about elementary processes responsible for ionization. We show that our diagnosis allows us to monitor the influence of the produced ionization on the elementary processes and on the density profile of the electro beam.
