Abstract
Absolute cross sections for electron-impact single ionization of potassium-like titanium have been measured from threshold to 1000 eV using a crossed-beams experimental set-up. A 0.5 eV resolution energy-scan technique revealed structures in the cross section in the range from 40 eV to 150 eV due to dominant contributions of indirect ionization mechanisms. A large fraction of the cross section is due to excitation–autoionization proceeding via intermediate excited states 3p5(3d2 3F) 2F, 3p5(3d2 3P) 2P, 3p5(3d2 3F) 2D which subsequently decay by super-Coster–Kronig transitions. The results of the measurements are in satisfactory agreement with previous advanced theoretical calculations.
