Electron-impact double ionization of I/sup 1 +/ and Xe/sup q/+ (q = 1,. ,4) ions: role of 4d electrons like in photoionization

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. Lett.; (United States)
The cross sections for electron-impact double ionization of I/sup 1 +/ and Xe/sup 1 +/ ions (and to a lesser extent also of Xe/sup 2 +/, Xe/sup 3 +/, and Xe/sup 4 +/ ions) show a dominant resonancelike contribution which, both in shape and size, almost coincides with the partial 4d-photoionization cross section of Xe atoms.
