Electron transfer and ionization in collisions between H{sup +}, He{sup 2+}, Li{sup 3+}, Be{sup 4+}, B{sup 5+}, C{sup 6+}, N{sup 7+} ions and target C{sup 5+}(1s) ions studied using a Sturmian basis

Cross sections have been determined for electron transfer and ionization in collisions between H{sup +}, He{sup 2+}, Li{sup 3+}, Be{sup 4+}, B{sup 5+}, C{sup 6+}, N{sup 7+} ions and target C{sup 5+}(1s) ions for projectile energies 125{endash}1000 keV/amu using a coupled-Sturmian-pseudostate approach [Phys. Rev. A {bold 35}, 3799 (1987)]. A comparison is made with results using simpler approaches, and rules for scaling with the projectile nuclear charge are considered. Except for H{sup +}, the results for electron transfer to the ground state are estimated to be converged to 1{percent}; for ionization, the convergence is probably to 10{endash}20thinsp{percent}. {copyright} {ital 1997} {ital The American Physical Society}
