Radiative electron capture to the continuum and the short-wavelength limit of electron-nucleus bremsstrahlung in 90A MeV U88 + ((1s2)(2s2))+N2 Collisions.

چکیده
We have measured the continuum momentum distribution for radiative electron capture to the continuum (RECC) cusp electrons in 90A MeV U88+ + N2-->U88+ + N2 +* + ecusp(0 degrees ) + hnu (RECC) collisions. We demonstrate that x rays coincident with RECC cusp electrons originate from the short-wavelength limit of the electron-nucleus bremsstrahlung and explain the asymmetric cusp shape by comparison with theory within the relativistic impulse approximation.

متن کاملThe polarization of bremsstrahlung from radiative ionization
Based on inverse kinematics the close relation between radiative electron capture to the projectile continuum, calculated within the impulse approximation, and electron–nucleus bremsstrahlung is shown. Particular emphasis is laid on the short-wavelength limit corresponding to cusp-electron emission in the target frame of reference. Differential cross sections and the degree of photon polarizati...
متن کاملRadiative ionization: The link between radiative electron capture and bremsstrahlung
This chapter is devoted to the theory of radiative ionization of target atoms in energetic collisions with highly stripped projectiles. It is set into context with the simultaneously occurring processes of nonradiative electron capture to continuum and radiative capture to bound projectile eigenstates. Among other processes linked by inverse kinematics, particular emphasis is laid on the relati...
متن کاملCurrent and future electron spectroscopy experiments in relativistic storage rings
Storage rings as the ESR and the future NESR in the FAIR project are unique tools to study the dynamics of electron-ion and ionatom collisions in the realm of strong perturbations and short interaction times. A telling sign of the character of such collisions are the electrons emitted into the continuum. For high Z projectiles and low Z targets the projectile centred continuum is dominating. Pr...
متن کاملThe Binary Encounter Peak in Radiative Ionization
It is shown that the radiative electron capture to continuum in energetic collisions with fast heavy projectiles also leads to a binary-encounter type peak in the high-energy electron spectrum. In contrast to the nonradiative target ionization this peak results from a higher-order process, involving near-elastic scattering, and its shape is different from the target Compton profile. Numerical r...
