Charge-exchange differential cross sections are calculated by the second Born approximations without a recourse to any further approximation. The exact second Born approximation cross sections show satisfactory agreement with the experimental data for proton-helium collisions at all the energies of 2.82, 5.42, and 7.4 MeV while they are considerably smaller than the existing experimental cross sections in the Thomas peak region for proton-hydrogen collisions at 2.8 MeV. Discussions are given on how to choose the interactions for two-electron systems in order to satisfy the boundary condition of neutral-atom collisions.
