K-shell resonant-transfer-excitation cross sections for S/sup 13+/ and Ca/sup 17+/

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. A; (United States)
Resonant-transfer-excitation (RTE) cross sections are calculated for K-shell excitation in Ca/sup 17+/+He, Ca/sup 17+/+H/sub 2/, and S/sup 13+/+He collision systems, and the results are compared with experiments. The RTE cross sections are obtained in the impulse approximation by averaging the corresponding dielectronic-recombination cross sections over the momentum distribution of the target electrons. Agreement is excellent for S/sup 13+/, but there are discrepancies in the Ca/sup 17+/ case.
