Instrumentation for Particle-Beams Research Using Laser Excited Merging Beams.
Abstract
A summary of research performed under AFOSR Grant No. 83-0242 is given. The review describes molecular-beam studies of ion-pair production and measurements of the fraction of excited Na atoms, f*, in a composite beam of ground-state and excited Na atoms. The actual ion-pair production reactions studied are the following: Na + Br yield Na(+) + B(-), Na + I2 yield Na(+) + I2(-), Na(Na*) + Na yield Na(+) + Na(-), and Li + Na yield Li(-) + Na(+). The reaction Na + I2 yield Na(+) + I2(-) was used to measure f*. A value of about 6% was obtained. The work was performed using instrumentation provided by the grant.
