Ionization excitation of diatomic systems having two active electrons by fast electron impact: a probe to electron correlation

Abstract: (e, 2e) ionization excitation of diatomic hydrogen to the first dissociative state of H+2 by fast electrons is studied theoretically using the prolate spheroidal two-centre continuum numerical solutions to construct the partial-wave description of the slow ejected electron in a variety of situations. Our results confirm the fundamental role of the initial bound state ‘left–right’ correlation and show the breakdown of dynamical behaviours observed in the case of simple (e, 2e) ionization. Actually realizable co… Show more

“…The second one is the molecular threebody distorted wave (M3DW) approximation coupled with an orientation-averaged molecular orbital approximation (OAMO) [20,21]. The TCC accurately describes the slow ejected electron in the electrostatic field of the residual diatomic ion as it produces [28] results in very good agreement with those obtained by a partial wave treatment of the exact solution of the two-centre Schrödinger equation in prolate spheroidal coordinates [29]. Here, the relatively fast incident and the scattered electrons are described by plane waves and the bound electron is given by self-consistent field (SCF) linear combination of atomic orbitals (LCAO) molecular orbitals (MO) [30].…”
