“…The continuous rise of the curve from zero at threshold is an indication that the satellites originate in a SO, rather than SU, process, since the later results in an intensity jump at the threshold (Å berg, 1972;Armen et al, 1985;Deutsch et al, 1996;Fritsch et al, 1998;Heiser et al, 1994). This is in full accord with the predicted intensity contribution of p1% (Deutsch et al, 1996;Fritsch et al, 1998) for SU in our case, as extrapolated from RMCDF calculations for Ar (Dyall, 1983;Mukoyama and Ito, 1994) and Kr (Wark et al, 1991). Note, however, that a KO process, the crosssection of which also rises continuously from zero, could also be a possible contributor.…”
