The low-energy spectrum of electrons emitted while bombarding a titanium target with β-particles obtained from a tritium source has been studied using the (βe)-coincidence method. To reveal common features and distinctions of this process for different charged particles under the same experimental conditions, including the same target, similar measurements are carried out using α-particles ejected in the decay of 238 Pu. It is shown that the ionization of atoms in the target at its bombardment with charged particles can be represented in the both cases as a result of the shake-off process. K e y w o r d s: reflection, passing through, near zero electrons (e0-electrons), shake-off effect, microchannel plates (MCP)
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
