Experimental and theoretical results on electron emission in collisions between He targets and dressed Li$^{q+}$ (q=1,2) projectiles

We investigate experimentally and theoretically the electron emission in collisions between He atoms and Li$^{q+}$ (q=1,2) projectiles at intermediate-high incident energies. We report on measured absolute values of double differential cross-sections, as a function of the emitted electron energy and angle, at a collision energy of 440~keV/u. The different contributions from target-ionisation, projectile-ionisation, and simultaneous target-projectile ionisation are calculated with the quantum-mechanical Continuum Distorted Wave and Continuum Distorted Wave -- Eikonal Initial State models, and with Classical Trajectory Monte Carlo simulations. There is an overall good agreement of the calculations with the experimental data for electron emission cross-sections.

Vortices in Ionization Collisions by Positron Impact

The presence of vortices in the ionisation of hydrogen atoms by positrons at intermediate impact energies is investigated. The present findings show that a previously reported minima in the fully-differential cross section is the signature of a vortex in the continuum positron-electron-proton system. The behaviour of the real and imaginary parts of the complex-valued transition matrix is studied in order to determine and characterize the vortex in momentum space. The obtained information is translated to fully-differential ionisation cross sections, feasible of being measured with currently available techniques.
