State-selective charge exchange cross sections in Be$$^{4+} -\hbox {H}(2\textit{lm})$$ collision based on the classical trajectory Monte Carlo method

A three-body classical trajectory Monte Carlo method is used to calculate the nl state-selective charge exchange cross sections in $$\hbox {Be}^{\mathrm {4+}}+$$ Be 4 + + H(2lm) collisions in the energy range between 10 and 200 keV/amu. We present partial cross sections for charge exchange into $$\hbox {Be}^{\mathrm {3+}}$$ Be 3 + (nl) $$(\textit{nl} = 2s, 2p, 3s, 3p, 3d, 4s, 4p, 4d, 4f)$$ ( nl = 2 s , 2 p , 3 s , 3 p , 3 d , 4 s , 4 p , 4 d , 4 f ) states as a function of impact energy. Our results are compared with the previous classical and quantum-mechanical results. We show that the classical treatment can able to describe reasonably well the charge exchange cross sections.
