Differential and integrated cross sections summed over all angular momentum sublevels are calculated for the process H/sup +/+H(n = 1)..-->..H /sup +/+H(n = 4) in the incident-proton energy range 15--400 keV, employing the Glauber approximation. The integrated cross sections are in very good agreement in curve shape with the available experimental measurement. Results are also presented for the integrated Glauber cross sections for 1s-4d and 1s-4f excitations of hydrogen by proton impact and are compared with available theoretical results.
