Abstract

Direct ionization (DI) and electron capture (EC) contributions have been inferred from target X-ray cross sections. Measurements have been made for the K-, L-, and M-shells for a range of selected projectile-target systems and ion-target electron velocity ratios. The inferred DI and EC results have been compared to Coulomb ionization theories consisting of the first Born and the perturbed stationary state (PSS) approaches. The comparison provides evidence of the validity of the PSS theory for the range of projectile-target systems and velocity ratios studied.
