Ionization of atomic hydrogen by bare ions with charges 1 to 6 in the Glauber approximation

Abstract

Total cross sections for the ionization of atomic hydrogen by the impact of bare ions with charge ${Z}_{1}=1\ensuremath{-}6$ evaluated in the Glauber approximation are presented and compared to recent data for ${Z}_{1}=1\ensuremath{-}3$ and to other theoretical predictions. At projectile velocities $v<{Z}_{1}$ (in atomic units) the Glauber results lie below data observed. For $v>{Z}_{1}$ the Glauber results converge to observed results better than other theoretical calculations now available.
