Trends in the electric field enhancement of dielectronic recombination cross sections

Conference ·
OSTI ID:6089536
The effect of external electric fields on the dielectronic recombination cross section of selected ions has been studied in the configuration-average, distorted wave approximation. By applying the linear-Stark approximation to the doubly-excited Rydberg states formed from resonant recombination, we examine the systematics of field-mixing effects on dielectronic recombination and determine the maximum field enhancement of dielectronic recombination cross sections. 8 references, 6 figures, 3 tables.
