Abstract
Electron-impact single, double, and triple ionizations are investigated for the ${\mathrm{B}}^{+}$ ion. The direct and indirect ionization processes are studied for the single and double ionization. Good agreement with measurements for the single and double ionization is obtained when the scaled distorted-wave cross sections are used to study the collisional ionization and excitation processes. It is shown that ionization-excitation-autoionization and excitation-ionization-autoionization processes have to be introduced to the total double ionization to explain the measurements. The triple ionization is investigated by considering the direct double ionization with the subsequent autoionization.
