Direct excitations for atomic hydrogen 2s → 3s, 3p, and 3d transitions by proton and antiproton collisions have been investigated by using an impact parameter treatment. The calculations are performed within the impact parameter versions of the first- and second-order Born approximations, as well as the solution of the coupled differential equations arising from the one-center atomic-orbital close-coupling approach. We have considered calculations that allow couplings to the n = 1–5 states (up to g sub-levels) of the target atom as well as others that neglect the effect of all states other than the initial and final states of the target atom. The sensitivity of the cross sections to the sign of the projectile charge as well as the influence of the mechanism of possible electronic transitions allowed by the techniques under consideration have been studied. The calculated cross sections are compared with those obtained by previous calculations.

Mode A

We comment briefly on relations between the elastic and inelastic cross-sections valid for the shadow and reflective modes of the elastic scattering. Those are based on the unitarity arguments. It is shown that the redistribution of the probabilities of the elastic and inelastic interactions (the form of the inelastic overlap function becomes peripheral) under the reflective scattering mode can lead to increasing ratio of [Formula: see text] at the LHC energies. In the shadow scattering mode, the mechanism of this increase is a different one, since the impact parameter dependence of the inelastic interactions probability is central in this mode. A short notice is also given on the slope parameter and the leading contributions to its energy dependence in both modes.

The Cross

A crossed beams method has been used to measure the cross section for the production of He + (2 S ) by electrons incident upon He + (1 S ) in the energy range from threshold to 750 eV. The cross section was measured in arbitrary units with an accuracy of ± 5 % and at the higher energies its energy dependence is in close agreement with that calculated by means of the plane-wave Born approximation. Consequently the cross section has been normalized to the plane-wave Born cross section at energies between 435 and 750 eV to obtain the absolute magnitude. An independent estimate of the absolute magnitude was made to with in ± 30 % using only the experimental parameters, and the absolute cross sections given by the two methods agree within the experimental uncertainties. The normalized cross section is compared with cross sections given by the close-coupling approximation and various Coulomb-Born approximations. At the lower energies the normalized cross section is considerably smaller than any of the theoretical values, but the measurements are consistent with the existence of a finite cross section at threshold if the energy spread of the electron beam is taken in to account.

AbstractWe have measured the absolute values of total cross sections of capture of one and two electrons by He^2+ ions from argon atoms. The differential scattering cross sections have been determined for fast atoms and singly charged helium ions formed in each of these processes (without and with additional ionization of the formed slow argon ion). Measurements have been taken for He^2+ ions with kinetic energy of 6 keV in scattering angle range 0–2.5°. Based on the measured differential cross sections using different model atomic particle interaction potentials, we have calculated the cross sections of these processes as functions of the impact parameter. The probabilities of realization of these processes with electron density distribution in different shells in the target atom have been compared. The applicability of the expressions for the screened Coulomb interaction potentials in the description of scattering of particles that have captured electrons has been demonstrated.

The Impact

This paper presents cross-sections and collision strengths for proton-impact excitation of optically forbidden transitions in Al10+. These data, calculated in the impact-parameter formalism, covering the expected range of energies/temperature in laser-produced plasmas, are believed to represent the first such detailed treatment of this system. The cross-sections decrease with energy as E−1, while the collision strengths tend to finite limits as the energy of colliding proton becomes infinitely great. This high-energy limiting value has been evaluated combining results from the semi-classical treatment of ion-impact excitation processes and the Born approximation for high-energy behavior of the collision strength. The effective target size has been estimated from the calculated high-energy limit of the collision strength in the Born approximation.

Basis Calculation

Calculations of low energy positron-hydrogen scattering using the close coupling approach are reported at low energies. The channel space includes nine physical hydrogen and positronium states and in addition twelve hydrogen and positronium pseudo-states. For energies below the positronium formation threshold, phase shifts are reported for J = 0 to 6 and are believed to have an absolute accuracy of 0�0015 radian or better. Elastic scattering and positronium formation cross sections in the Ore gap for the J = 0 and J = 1 partial waves are essentially identical with previous variational calculations. Total elastic and positronium formation cross sections are reported at incident energies below the ionisation threshold. Cross sections for the excitation of the H(n=2), H(n=3) and Ps( n=2) levels are also reported over a restricted energy range, and the total reaction cross section has been computed and compared with experiment.

Intermediate Energies

Calculations of positron–hydrogen scattering at intermediate energies up to a maximum energy of 10 Ryd are performed using the close coupling (CC) approach. A large L2 basis of positron–hydrogen channels (28 states) is supplemented by the Ps(1s), Ps(2s) and Ps(2p) channels. The inclusion of the positronium states in the CC expansion leads to a model which can describe most of the physics of the positron–hydrogen system with a reasonable degree of accuracy. In particular, the positronium formation cross section, the total reaction cross section and the ionisation cross section are all in agreement with experiment. The elastic scattering cross section and the cross sections for positron impact excitation of the H(2s) and H(2p) levels are also reported.
