Abstract

An electron momentum spectroscopy study on ionization-excitation processes of He is reported. The symmetric noncoplanar (e,2e) cross sections for transitions to excited ion states have been measured relative to that to the ground ion state at impact energies of 1240 and 4260 eV. The experimental results exhibit a marked dependence on the impact energy. This provides strong evidence that higher-order effects are involved. Second-Born-approximation calculations are performed and their results are compared with the experimental ones. It is shown that the two-step mechanisms play crucial roles in the ionization-excitation processes.

Double Electron Excitation Dynamics Studied By (E, 2E) Electron Momentum Spectroscopy

Journal Article Watanabe, N. ; Takahashi, M. - AIP Conference Proceedings

We report a collision dynamics study on ionization-excitation processes of He and H{sub 2} by means of (e, 2e) electron momentum spectroscopy. The two-step mechanism, one of the second-order terms of the plane-wave Born series model, has been found to play a particular role in the processes at an incident electron energy of 1.2 keV.

Two-step-wise interpretation of highly asymmetric, grazing angle (e,2e) on solids: A real momentum spectroscopy for surfaces and overlayers

Journal Article Liscio, A. ; CNISM and Dipartimento di Fisica, Universita di Roma Tre, Via Vasca Navale 84, 00146 Roma ; Ruocco, A. ; ... - Physical Review. B, Condensed Matter and Materials Physics

This paper deals with the mechanism of grazing incidence (e,2e) events from surfaces. Two different approaches are considered. In both cases, elastic scattering with the crystal lattice assists the inelastic collision; these two steps are coupled either coherently or incoherently. Experimental evidence is given that the 'coherent' approach reproduces better the cross section dependence on momentum transfer in the specific case of asymmetric kinematics at moderate electron energies. This model has allowed us to map out the band dispersion of the outermost valence states of highly oriented pyrolytic graphite and to measure the momentum distribution of {pi}-electron states without invokingmore »« less

Calculations of the exclusive processes {sup 2}H(e,e{sup '}p)n,{sup 3}He(e,e{sup '}p){sup 2}H, and {sup 3}He(e,e{sup '}p)(pn) within a generalized eikonal approximation

Journal Article Ciofi degli Atti, C. ; Kaptari, L.P. - Physical Review. C, Nuclear Physics

The exclusive processes {sup 2}H(e,e{sup '}p)n,{sup 3}He(e,e{sup '}p){sup 2}H, and {sup 3}He(e,e{sup '}p)(pn) have been analyzed using realistic few-body wave functions and treating the final state interaction (FSI) within a generalized eikonal approximation (GEA), based on direct calculation of the Feynman diagrams describing the rescattering of the struck nucleon with the nucleons of the A-1 system. The approach represents an improvement of the conventional Glauber approach (GA) because it allows one to take into account the effects of the nuclear excitation of the A-1 system on the rescattering of the struck nucleon. Using realistic three-body wave functions corresponding to themore »« less

Kinematical correction to the impulse approximation for high-energy binary (e,2e) collisions in He

Journal Article Lahman-Bennani, A. - Phys. Rev. A; (United States)

A modification is proposed to the kinematical description of a binary-encounter collision, taking into account the p-dependent (p is the initial momentum of the target electron) kinetic energy lost by the slow (ejected) electron while propagating out of the atomic potential. It is shown, at least for the high-energy asymmetric (e,2e) reaction on helium, that this correction leads to a ''universal'' representation of the data and to a remarkable agreement with experiment over a wide range of ejection energies and scattering angles.

(e,2e) ionization-excitation of H{sub 2}

Journal Article Takahashi, M. ; Khajuria, Y. ; Udagawa, Y. - Physical Review. A

Binary (e,2e) measurements are reported for ionization-excitation processes of H{sub 2}. The experiments were performed at impact energies of 1200, 1600, and 2000 eV using an energy- and momentum-dispersive spectrometer. Momentum profiles for transitions to the 2s{sigma}{sub g} and 2p{sigma}{sub u} excited final ion states are presented as normalized intensities relative to the cross section of the primary ionization to the 1s{sigma}{sub g} ground ion state. The results are compared with theoretical calculations of Lermer et al. [Phys. Rev. A 56, 1393 (1997)] using the first-order plane-wave impulse approximation. Certain features of the discrepancies between experiment and theory can bemore »« less
