Double photoionization and transfer ionization of he: shakeoff theory revisited.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The shakeoff theory of Aberg [Phys. Rev. A 2, 1726 (1970)] is revisited. With the sudden approximation, we calculate the shakeoff probability when one of the electrons in He is ejected with a finite velocity. This theory is used to examine ratios of cross sections for double to single photoionization and transfer ionization to single electron capture. It is also shown that the momentum distribution of the shakeoff electron provides a means to measure the correlation of the ground state wave function directly.

Double-to-single target ionization ratio for electron capture in fast p-He collisions.
We have used the ion storage ring CRYRING and its internal gas-jet target and recoil-ion-momentum spectrometer to measure absolute cross sections for transfer ionization (TI: p+He-->H0+He2++e(-)) in 2.5-4.5 MeV p-He collisions with separate Thomas (TTI) and kinematic (KTI) TI contributions. The probability for electron emission in kinematical capture decreases with increasing velocity and appea...
متن کاملSeparation and identification of dominant mechanisms in double photoionization.
Double photoionization by a single photon is often discussed in terms of two contributing mechanisms, knockout (two-step-one) and shakeoff, with the latter being a pure quantum effect. It is shown that a quasiclassical description of knockout and a simple quantum calculation of shakeoff provides a clear separation of the mechanisms and facilitates their calculation considerably. The relevance o...
متن کاملDouble Photoionization of Magnesium From Threshold to 54 eV
Direct double photoionization of atoms in which two electrons are simultaneously emitted is of high interest for understanding electron correlations. Many investigations of double photoionization have focused on helium -the textbook example for double ionization with its two electrons. Double-photoionization experiments on atoms beyond He are still sparse and often less sophisticated due to the...
متن کاملCharge transfer cross sections at low energies and transfer ionization at high energies
We report a theoretical study of state-selective differential single-electron capture cross sections between Na and Rb(5s, 5p) atoms. The experimental data have been obtained with laser cooled target in a magnetic optical trap (MOT). We also report a theoretical study of transfer ionization of He by protons at high collision energies and analyze the transfer ionization cross section with respec...
متن کاملPhotoionization of helium nanodroplets doped with rare gas atoms.
Photoionization of He droplets doped with rare gas atoms (Rg=Ne, Ar, Kr, and Xe) was studied by time-of-flight mass spectrometry, utilizing synchrotron radiation from the Advanced Light Source from 10 to 30 eV. High resolution mass spectra were obtained at selected photon energies, and photoion yield curves were measured for several ion masses (or ranges of ion masses) over a wide range of phot...
