Abstract

Electron-impact ionization of atoms with fixed projection of orbital moment m on a distinguished axis (orbital polarization) is studied. Analytical expressions for the ionization amplitude in the first Born approximation with Born-Coulomb matrix element are obtained for 2p m and 3p m , m = 0,±1, the initial states of the atomic electron. The results of double differential cross-section calculations arepresented as 3-D images. The example of ionization ofp-excited Na and Li atoms is considered.
