For the first time, the values of the atomic particle-solid body potential were obtained from experimental data on the energy spectra and angular dependences of backscattered particles. The proposed procedure for determining the potential has not previously been applied. It is shown that the obtained data do not depend on the potential approximation used. The interaction potential between an ion and a solid differs markedly from the potential describing collisions in the gas phase. The screening constant increases by 10-15%. The increase in screening is due to an increase in the density of the electron gas in the region between the incident particle and the scattering center.
The Auger transition probabilities are calculated while filling a vacancy on 2pπ orbital in a Ne+-Ne quasimolecule, a short-lived system which is formed when ion and atom approach each other and decays when they scatter. For the first time calculations were performed for various degrees of particles ionization in quasimolecule. It was found that with increase of collision energy and decrease of distance of the closest approach of particles the system ionization degree increases very significantly (from 2 to 6). Using of the quantum mechanical approach and taking into account the dynamics of collisions made it possible for the first time to describe quantitatively the experimental spectra of Auge electrons for a complex many-electron quasimolecule. From the whole variety of possible Auger decay channels the dominant contribution of the transition was established, from the initial 3dπ-3dπ state to the 2pπ orbital.
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.
