Photodetachment cross sections for He/sup -/(/sup 4/P/sup 0/)

Conference ·
OSTI ID:7026610
The first measurements are reported of photodetachment cross sections for He/sup -/ (formed through charge exchange of He/sup +/ with Ca vapor) over the photon energy range from 1.77 to 2.75 eV. The energies of autodetached electrons from the metastable He/sup -/ beam have also been determined for the first time. The autodetached electron energy agrees within experimental error (+-0.25 eV) with the known 1s2s2p)/sup 4/P/sup 0/ He/sup -/ energy level. This taken with measurements for the lifetime of He/sup -/ infers that charge exchange of He/sup +/ with Ca vapor produces /sup 4/P/sup 0/ He/sup -/.
