Chemi-ionization reactions involving metastable helium atoms at high energy
Total chemi-ionization cross-sections have been measured over the 15 to 1 500 eV energy interval for collisions of He 2 1S and 2 3S metastable atoms with Ne, H2, N2, O2 and CO, using a slow ion measurement technique. With molecular targets these measurements have shown a strong energy dependence for the total ionization cross-section without dissociation. In the case of dissociative ionization ...
متن کاملOptical traps for Ultracold Metastable Helium atoms
Introduction Research on ultra-cold atoms is a very rich area of investigation, where different fields of basic research merge, such as atomic, condensed-matter and many-body physics. The first realisation of a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) has been observed almost simusta-neously in 1995 by three groups working with different alkali atoms (Rb [1],Na [2],Li [3]). Before, BECs have usually been...
متن کاملUltracold collisions of metastable helium atoms
We report scattering lengths for the Σg , Σu and Σg adiabatic molecular potentials relevant to collisions of two metastable 2 3S helium atoms as a function of the uncertainty in these potentials. These scattering lengths are used to calculate experimentally observable scattering lengths, elastic cross sections and inelastic rates for any combination of states of the colliding atoms, at temperat...
متن کاملLong-range interactions of metastable helium atoms
Polarizabilities, dispersion coefficients, and long-range atom-surface interaction potentials are calculated for the n = 2 triplet and singlet states of helium using highly accurate, variationally determined, wave functions. PACS numbers: 34.20.Cf, 32.10.Dk, 34.50.Dy Typeset using REVTEX 1 The advent of doubled basis sets has made it possible to calculate precisely many properties of two-electr...
متن کاملThe ionization of helium by neutral helium atoms.
A method is described for investigating the ionization produced in helium by collisions between quasi-stationary atoms—that is, atoms possessing only thermal velocities—and a beam of neutral helium atoms with kinetic energy less than 100 eV. Ionization is shown to begin when the kinetic energy of the bombarding atoms is twice as great as the minimum kinetic energy which electrons must possess i...
