Ionization and positronium formation in noble gases
Absolute measurements are presented for the positron-impact cross sections for direct ionization and positronium formation of noble gas atoms in the range of energies from threshold to 90 eV. The experiment uses a cold, trap-based positron beam and the technique of studying positron scattering in a strong magnetic field. The current data show generally good, quantitative agreement with previous...
متن کاملPositronium formation from valence and inner shells in noble gas atoms
When recent experimental positronium (Ps) formation cross sections in noble gases have been compared with the most up-to date theoretical studies, the agreement is qualitative, but not quantitative. In this paper we re-examine this process and show that at low energies Ps formation must be treated nonperturbatively. We also look at Ps formation with inner shell electrons.
متن کاملNoble gases in mantle plumes.
Trieloff et al. (1) provided neon isotope data to argue that mantle neon originates as a trapped component in meteorites rather than having a pristine solar composition. That finding, if true, has important consequences for understanding the mechanism of volatile input into the mantle, because it rules out models involving direct incorporation of solar gases. The main argument that Trieloff et ...
متن کاملNoble Gases in Tagish Lake
Introduction: Tagish Lake has been classified as a CI2 chondrite [1] with an interstellar grain abundance enhanced over that of CI1 and CM2 chondrites [2]. Noble gases have been used as markers for the presence of exotic, presolar grains in chondritic meteorites: Xe-HL (nanodiamonds) and Xe-s/Ne-E (SiC). We have measured He, Ne, Ar and Xe in whole-rock Tagish Lake, and an orthophosphoric acidre...
متن کاملRelativistic contributions to single and double core electron ionization energies of noble gases.
We have performed relativistic calculations of single and double core 1s hole states of the noble gas atoms in order to explore the relativistic corrections and their additivity to the ionization potentials. Our study unravels the interplay of progression of relaxation, dominating in the single and double ionization potentials of the light elements, versus relativistic one-electron effects and ...
