Charge transfer in H++Ar collisions from 10 to 150 keV -: art. no. 052718

Total as well as partial cross sections for single-electron capture of H+ on Ar are calculated by the semiclassical impact parameter method, using a two-center atomic basis expansion, in the impact energy range 10-150 keV. The resulting total cross sections are in good agreement with previous experimental data. Partial cross sections agree qualitatively with measurements at high energies, while at low energies the experimental data are found to be approximately six times smaller than the present results.
