Study of single electron capture in O6+ + He collisions

Research on electron capture (EC) process are undoubtedly helpful for maturing theoretical models on ion-induced collision especially for low-energy region. In this work, a two-active-electron semiclassical asymptotic-state close-coupling method was used to calculate the total and l-solved state-selective single EC cross sections of O6+ + He collisions in the energy range of 0.3-100 keV u(-1), accompanied with experimental measurements in the energy range of 2.63-37.5 keV u(-1) with an uncertainty of 11% in good agreement. Above 4.5 keV u(-1), the state-selective cross section of n = 5 was reported experimentally for the first time. Calculations with multiple theoretical methods were gathered and compared with present calculations. The importance of two-active-electrons correlation and large basis sets in theoretical calculations was found, and discrepancies between previous theoretical and experimental results can be explained by the present results.
