Good Agreement

Electron-impact single- and double-ionization cross sections and Maxwellian rate coefficients are presented for the carbon atom. Scaling factors are introduced for the electron-impact excitation and ionization cross sections obtained in the distorted wave (DW) approximation. It is shown that the scaled DW cross sections provide good agreement with measurements for the single ionization of the C atom and C1+ ion. The direct double-ionization (DDI) process is studied using a multi-step approach. Ionization–ionization, excitation–ionization–ionization, and ionization–excitation–ionization branches are analyzed. It is demonstrated that the three-step processes contribute ≼40% of the total DDI cross sections for the case where one of the electrons takes all of the excess energy after the first ionization process.

Electron impact ionization of He, Ne, Ar, Kr and Xe has been studied with a double focussing mass spectrometer Varian MAT CH5. Ratios of various multiple ionization cross sections with respect to single ionization cross sections for He, Ne, Ar, Kr and Xe at electron energies of 50, 100 and 150eV are given. These cross section ratios are com­pared with previous determinations.

Extended Basis

Electron-impact ionization cross sections and Maxwellian rate coefficients are presented for the Fe8+ion by considering processes from the ground and metastable levels. The lifetimes of the levels for the 3s23p53d configuration were analysed using the extended basis of interacting configurations. Convergence of the cross sections for the indirect process due to excitations to the high-nlsubshells was investigated. We demonstrate that excitations to the subshells with orbital quantum numberl = 3 with subsequent autoionization dominate up to electron energies of ∼700 eV for the ground and metastable levels. Modelling of theoretical cross sections obtained for the ground and metastable levels to produce the best fit to the measurements shows that 15% of ions reach the reaction zone in the metastable state. The obtained results contradict the previous work that showed ∼30% for the metastable fraction.
