Young-type interference in projectile-electron loss in energetic ion-molecule collisions.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Under certain conditions an electron bound in a fast projectile ion, colliding with a molecule, interacts mainly with the nuclei and inner shell electrons of atoms forming the molecule. Because of their compact localization in space and distinct separation from each other, these molecular centers play in such collisions a role similar to that of optical slits in light scattering leading to pronounced interference in the spectra of the electron emitted from the projectile.

The Comparison of the shares of stopping power in a soft tissue-equivalent material
Introduction: Proton therapy is a type of radiation treatment that it uses protons to treat cancer. Because of the protons’ unique ability to distribute the radiation dose more directly to the tumor, it minimizes the damage to nearby healthy tissues. The rate of energy loss by the ion in the target is called stopping power. The total stopping power is sum nuclear and electroni...
متن کاملRapidity losses in heavy-ion collisions from AGS to RHIC energies
We study the rapidity losses in central heavy-ion collisions from AGS to RHIC energies with the mean rapidity determined from the projectile net-baryon distribution after collisions. The projectile net-baryon distribution in the full rapidity range was obtained by removing the target contribution phenomenologically at forward rapidity region from the experimental net-baryon measurements and tak...
متن کاملDifferential Cross Section Measurements in Ion-molecule Collisions
A 14 m long beam line dedicated to study very small scattering angles in ion-molecule collisions has been set up in the University of Toledo Heavy Ion Accelerator (THIA) Laboratory. Together with position sensitive detectors for both the projectile and the recoil particles’ detection, the beam line can be used to measure the projectile forward scattering angles of up to 2.5 milliradians (mrad) ...
متن کاملCOLTRIMS Imaging of Molecular Fragmentation Dynamics of CO Molecules Induced by Slow He Ions
We study the multiple ionization and fragmentation of CO in collisions with slow He ions. Correlated measurements of all fragment ions and the projectile final charge state were performed using our coincidence COLTRIMS imaging technique coupled to projectile charge state separation. Complete fragmentations of CO, following double electron capture, into C+O with a total charge of 4 were investig...
متن کاملUltrahigh harmonics from laser-assisted ion-atom collisions.
We present a theoretical analysis of high-order harmonic generation from ion-atom collisions in the presence of linearly polarized intense laser pulses. Photons with frequencies significantly higher than in standard atomic high-harmonic generation are emitted. These harmonics are due to two different mechanisms: (i) collisional electron capture and subsequent laser-driven transfer of an electro...
