Experimental cross sections for electron capture from lithium by slow, highly charged, rare-gas projectiles

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. A; (United States)
Experimental cross sections have been measured for single-electron capture from Li by Ne, Ar, Kr, and Xe ions in charge states (q) between 2 and 10 and at projectile energies between 100q and 1000q eV. The cross sections are found to depend on the incident charge state but are nearly independent of both the projectile species and energy. Good agreement between the experimental results and those of absorbing sphere and classical barrier models is found.
