Abstract

In the energy range of a few keV the orientation and alignment in electron capture by proton impact from polarized Na*(3p) atoms is studied in a semiclassical molecular model. The adiabatic basis functions, obtained using a model potential method, are modified by a common electron translation factor. The orientation effect is interpreted in terms of a three-state molecular model at large impact parameters 10 au(b(20 au even though the detailed study of the total cross sections requires at least 14 states of positive symmetry.
