Abstract

The contribution of transfer ionization (TI) to total electron capture has been measured for Oq+ ions (q=5, 6, 7, and 8) colliding with helium at energies from 0.5 to 1.5 MeV/u. These measurements, along with other published results, suggest a maximum TI contribution to total capture of 0.15q0.5 at E (in keV /u)q0.5100 The results demonstrate that the failure to account for transfer ionization in total single-charge-transfer cross sections may lead to large discrepancies between experiment and theory. © 1987 The American Physical Society.
