Target and projectile cross sections for F ions on Ti, V, Cr, Fe, and Co: 1. 7 MeV/amu

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev., A; (United States)
Measurements of the target-thickness dependences of the target K x-ray production yields are reported for 1.7-MeV/amu F/sup q/+ (q = 6, 8, and 9) ions incident upon thin solid targets of elements from Ti to Co. Target K x-ray production cross sections were extracted in the limit of vanishing target thickness. Comparisons of the data to theoretical estimates based upon combinations of direct ionization and electron-transfer processes are presented. Projectile K-vacancy production and quenching cross sections were obtained from the three-component model for the target K x-ray data as a function of foil thickness. Comparisons of the projectile parameters to theoretical estimates based upon electron transfer, direct ionization, and excitation processes are presented.
