Electron capture by protons passing through heliumlike ions

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. A; (United States)
The Coulomb-Born (CB) and a modified Coulomb-Born approximations where distortion has been taken into account in the initial channel have been applied to calculate the electron-capture cross sections by protons passing through some heliumlike ions. Results for the charge-transfer cross sections in CB approximation for different isoelectronic ions have been computed, retaining both the post and prior forms of the interaction potential. The results for the process H/sup +/+Li/sup +/..-->..H+Li/sup 2 +/ have been compared with the available theoretical and experimental findings.
