Crossed Beam Studies of Low Energy He+ Ions by He Atoms

Autoionization of He and Autodetachment of He- following Bombardment by H+, H2+, He+, and He Atoms

Calculation of the total cross section for the ionization of H, He, Ne and Ar atoms by bare ions at the high energy range

In the present work, the total cross-section for the ionization of  H, He, Ne and Ar atoms by +He2+ ، H+ ، Li3 ions has been calculated. In these calculations, a binary encounter approximation in the form of a two-body process between projectile ions and atomic electrons at the high energy range has been implemented. In order to enter the nuclear role of the target atom, the atomic electron vel...

Double K-shell photoionization of low-Z atoms and He-like ions

We report on the investigation of the photon energy dependence of double 1s photoionization of light atoms and compare the cross sections for hollow atom and He-like ion production. Measurements of the Kα hypersatellite x-ray spectra of Mg, Al, and Si were carried out using the Fribourg high-resolution x-ray spectrometer installed at the ID21 and ID26 beam lines at the ESRF. The double-to-singl...

Direct excitations of He+ and Li++ ions by collisions with protons or antiprotons

The impact parameter formalism of the single-center close-coupling, first-, and second-order Born approximations have been applied to investigate direct excitations of Helium He+(2s) and Lithium Li++(2s) ions by colliding with protons or antiprotons. The total 3s, 3p, and 3d scaled excitation cross sections are calculated in the scaled impact energy region (2 to 1000 keV). The present work aims...

He Ions for 3D Imaging

A theoretical model of He ion imaging for acquisition of a stack of image slices with applications in 3D tomography previously showed that ion implantation accumulates with each image scan [1]. The accumulated ion implantation can result in damage to the target depending on image dose per slice and slice thickness. The imaging ion energy and incidence angle will also influence the accumulated i...
