The cross section σ−+ for double electron detachment from Cl− in a single collision with a rare gas atom has been measured between 12.5 and 122.5 keV. The magnitude of these cross sections shows that there is a good probability that a second electron will be emitted in collisions that detach one electron, particularly with light targets. The centre-of-mass cross section decreases with increasing target mass, but the variation is less than that for F− and O− double electron detachment cross sections.

The single-electron and double-electron detachment cross sections of Cl– in collision with inert gas atoms (He–Xe) have been measured by the growth rate method. The incident negative ions’ energies are from 5 to 30 keV. It is found that the single-electron detachment cross sections become greater and greater when the target atoms change from helium to xenon. However, double-electron detachment cross sections show a more complicated relationship with the target atom changing. The results of this work have been compared with the previous data, and a model based on energy division is used to interpret the trends of cross sections.


The close-coupling theory of electron detachment, developed in the preceding paper I, is used to calculate the probability of survival of the negative ion, and the total probability of electron detachment. Neglect of a term reduces the formulas to more familiar ones, which are then used to calculate differential elastic cross sections and total detachment cross sections for the H - –He and D - –He systems. Good agreement with experi­mental results is obtained.

We first explore negative-ion formation in fullerenes C44, C60, C70, C98, C112, C120, C132 and C136 through low-energy electron elastic scattering total cross sections calculations using our Regge-pole methodology. Water oxidation to peroxide and water synthesis from H2 and O2 are then investigated using the anionic catalysts C44ˉ to C136ˉ. The fundamental mechanism underlying negative-ion catalysis involves hydrogen bond strength-weakening in the transition state. DFT transition state calculations found C60ˉ numerically stable for both water and peroxide synthesis, C100ˉ increases the energy barrier the most and C136ˉ the most effective catalyst in both water synthesis and oxidation to H2O2.

Transient negative ions (resonances) formed during the collision of an electron with an atom or molecule have been extensively studied for over thirty years. The continued interest in these states, both experimentally and theoretically, stems from the profound effects that they can have on electron scattering cross sections and the role that electron–electron correlations play in their formation and quasi-stability. A selective discussion of examples of such resonances, involving one, two and three excited electrons is given for a wide range of atomic and molecular systems.
