IMPACT IONIZATION OF SODIUM,

Abstract

The cross sections for Na(3s) + X (yields) Na(+)+e+X, in which X is a proton or an electron, are calculated by the first Born approximation. In the proton case the cross section obtained passes through a maximum of 1.9 x 10 to the -15 power sq cm at an impact energy of 7.6 kev, and in the electron case it passes through a maximum 5.6 x 10 to the -16 sq cm at an impact energy of 14 ev.
