State-selective charge exchange cross sections in Be^{4+} -hbox {H}(2textit{lm}) collision based on the classical trajectory Monte Carlo method

Abstract

A three-body classical trajectory Monte Carlo method is used to calculate the nl state-selective charge exchange cross sections in hbox {Be}^{mathrm {4+}}+ H(2lm) collisions in the energy range between 10 and 200 keV/amu. We present partial cross sections for charge exchange into hbox {Be}^{mathrm {3+}}(nl) (textit{nl} = 2s, 2p, 3s, 3p, 3d, 4s, 4p, 4d, 4f) states as a function of impact energy. Our results are compared with the previous classical and quantum-mechanical results. We show that the classical treatment can able to describe reasonably well the charge exchange cross sections.Graphic abstract
