Impact-parameter dependence of K-shell vacancy sharing in heavy-ion collisions

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. Lett.; (United States)
The impact-parameter dependence of the 2psigma-1ssigma vacancy-sharing probability has been investigated in 35-MeV Cl on Ti and Cl on Ni collisions. A stronger impact-parameter dependence is observed with increasing asymmetry of the collision system. The impact-parameter dependence of the K-vacancy sharing is in good agreement with a simple analytical solution, derived by Briggs, of the two-state coupled-channel equations.
