Abstract

The classical-trajectory Monte Carlo method has been used to determine product-state distributions in Aq++HA(q-1)+(nl)+H+ electron-capture collisions at energies 50 and 100 keV/amu for fully stripped ions in charge states q=1to 20. In the energy region studied, the electron-capture products are found to populate predominately principal quantum numbers around nmq34. Such behavior implies the captured electron tries to preserve both its original orbital energy and dimensions after the electron-capture collision. The orbital-angular-momentum quantum numbers l are more highly peaked than statistical to large l values for nnm. © 1981 The American Physical Society.
