Calculations of electron impact ionization cross section for simple biomolecules: Formic and acetic acids
نویسنده
چکیده
Cross sections for single electron-impact ionization of formic acid (HCOOH) and acetic acid (CH3–COOH) are calculated using the binaryencounter-Bethe model in the energy range from the ionization threshold up to 4000 eV. The present results are compared with available experimental and theoretical data.

Calculation of the total cross section for the ionization of H, He, Ne and Ar atoms by bare ions at the high energy range
In the present work, the total cross-section for the ionization of H, He, Ne and Ar atoms by +He2+ ، H+ ، Li3 ions has been calculated. In these calculations, a binary encounter approximation in the form of a two-body process between projectile ions and atomic electrons at the high energy range has been implemented. In order to enter the nuclear role of the target atom, the atomic electron vel...
متن کاملElectron-impact double ionization of helium at high energies
Electron-impact double-ionization cross sections for the helium atom are calculated by direct solution of a nine-dimensional Schrödinger equation using a time-dependent close-coupling method. Previous calculations are extended to higher incident electron energies using a simple factor-of-2 reduction in the mesh spacing for the three-dimensional radial lattice. The recent calculations, computati...

Total cross section for single electron-impact ionization of cisplatin (H6N2Cl2Pt) molecule has been calculated with the binary-encounter-Bethe (BEB) model from the ionization threshold up to 5 keV. To obtain input data for the BEB calculations, geometric and electronic structures of the cisplatin have been studied with quantum chemical methods.

متن کاملAn X-ray diffraction study of partially ordered electron density in clathrates of Dianin's compound that include simple carboxylic acids.
The nature of the inclusions in ten clathrate complexes of Dianin's compound have been investigated by the use of electron-density difference maps. The guest species are the first eight straight-chain carboxylic acids, formic to octanoic, a branched-chain acid (dimethylacetic acid) and trifluoroacetic acid. The point-group symmetry of the clathrate cavity, 3, is satisfied by partial occupation ...
متن کاملInfluence of long-lived metastable levels on the electron-impact single ionization of C2+
A joint theoretical and experimental investigation is made of the influence of long-lived metastable levels on the electron-impact single ionization of C2+. It is expected that our electron cyclotron resonance ion source produces a beam with 40% of the C2+ ions in the 1s22s2 S0 ground level and 60% in the 1s 22s2p P0,2 excited levels. The comparison of nonperturbative close-coupling calculation...
