The charge exchange, ionization, and electron loss cross-sections for the reactions Ar/sup +/ and Ar in H/sub 2/, He, Ne, Ar, Kr, and Xe were examined in single collision conditions. The total cross sections were determined by using the condenser method. Comparisons with experimental and theoretical resuits were made. Different collision processes in the excited state are possible. The ionization cross sections by ions are higher than the ionization cross sections by atoms. In some collision combinations the roughly estimated distance of interaction for the ionization process is compared with the distance of interaction for charge exchange determined by the criterion of Massey.
