Abstract
The decay of the ${\mathrm{He}}^{+}$(3p) state has been observed downstream from a thin amorphous carbon foil bombarded by a helium beam of velocity ranging from 2.6 to 4.7 (in units of the Bohr velocity ${v}_{0}$). The data analysis has been performed in the framework of a model that allows one to determine whether the bound state of an emergent ion may have been formed inside the solid target or only at emergence. We show that the ${\mathrm{He}}^{+}$(3p) state can be bound inside solid carbon if the ion velocity is high enough and we have observed the velocity threshold.
