Electron-capture collisions at keV energies of multiply charged ions of carbon and argon with molecular deuterium

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev., A; (United States)
Single- and double-electron-capture cross sections have been measured for C/sup q/+ with initial charges 2 < or = q < or = 6 and for Ar/sup q/+ with initial charges 2 < or = q < or = 12 incident on molecular deuterium gas targets. The cross sections show little dependence on the incident-ion energy for the range studied 2q to 10q keV. The single-electron-capture cross sections do not vary monotonically with the initial charge, but show an oscillation about a mean curve, reflecting the projectile electronic structure.
