THEORY OF KNLV MULTIPLE VACANCY PRODUCTION BY HEAVY-IONS Academic Article uri icon

abstract

  • Observation of intensities of K X-ray or Auger satellites and hypersatellites together with fluorescence yields provides knowledge of KLv and K2Lv vacancy distributions produced by ion-atom collisions. The traditional theory used since about 1972 employs a single-particle model and a weak-coupling ionization approximation. We review our recent extensions of the theory to include Pauli correlations in the independent-Fermi-particle model, a unitary collision theory in the first Magnus and coupled-channels approximations, electron transfer to the projectile, and contributions from shake-off which interfere with the collision-induced amplitudes. 1985.
