Abstract
The universal scaling behavior for the electron-impact excitation cross sections of the 2s states of hydrogen- and helium-like multicharged ions is deduced. The study is performed within the framework of non-relativistic perturbation theory, taking into account the one-photon exchange diagrams. Special emphasis is laid on the near-threshold energy domain. The parametrical relationship between the cross sections for excitation of multicharged ions with different number of electrons is established.
