Signature of Ericson fluctuations in helium inelastic scattering cross sections near the double ionization threshold
نویسندگان
چکیده
We calculated the inelastic electron impact excitation cross sections of He+ by electrons for a model helium atom to examine the onset of the signature of quantum chaotic scattering in this simple system. We find Ericson fluctuations EF in the calculated inelastic scattering cross sections only when the impact energies lie within about 0.21 eV below the double ionization threshold. We also discuss the stringent requirements and the proper methods for analyzing the inelastic scattering cross sections in order to observe EF experimentally.

Mechanisms of photo double ionization of helium by 530 eV photons.
We have measured fully differential cross sections for photo double ionization of helium 450 eV above the threshold. We have found an extremely asymmetric energy sharing between the photoelectrons and an angular asymmetry parameter beta approximately 2 and beta approximately 0 for the fast and slow electrons, respectively. The electron angular distributions show a dominance of the shakeoff for ...
متن کاملCalculation of the triple and double cross sections in the proton-hydrogen impact at the ionization channel by removing singularity in the scattering amplitudes
In the present work, the triple and double cross sections of atomic hydrogen ionization in collision with the proton are calculated. The potential of the interaction is considered as a Coulombic; also, the first and second order Born approximations have been used. The singularity of the Green operator in the second order approximation has been removed for the analytical solution of the scatt...
متن کاملQuantum chaotic scattering in atomic physics: Ericson fluctuations in photoionization.
We report the first experimental investigation of quantum chaotic scattering in an atomic system: in strong crossed magnetic and electric fields in an energy regime beyond the ionization threshold, where the classical dynamics is an example of chaotic scattering. We find Ericson fluctuations in the spectra for photo excitation into this regime. This result constitutes the first observation of E...

This is a report about a novel experiment on double excitation of Helium by absorption of synchrotron radiation close to the double ionization threshold at 79 eV. Partial cross-sections for single-ionization from 78.15 eV up to 78,9 eV (photon energy) with an energy resolution of 3meV have been measured. The technique described in this article allows for an angular and energy resolved measureme...

We analyze the correlation eeects in two electron atoms and ions which can be probed in double ionization with high energy photons. We consider total cross sections and diierential cross sections for double ionization by pho-toabsorption and Compton scattering and discuss the shake and non{shake mechanisms which may contribute to these observables. The total cross section for photoabsorption (a...
