Abstract

Single-electron capture in collisions of highly charged ions Xe18+ and Xe24+ with Na atoms is investigated by measuring the momenta of the Na recoil ions. The Q-value spectrum in Xe18+ + Na collisions shows capture into lower n states compared with Classical over-barrier model (CBM) calculations. Partial cross sections for capture into n = 13…20 for Xe18+and n = 19… 24 for Xe24+, extracted from Q-value spectra, show no obvious dependence in the energy range available for our experiment (0.5-4.5 keV/amu).
