The effect of wave function orthogonality on the simultaneous ionization and excitation of helium

Abstract: Within the framework of the first-order Born approximation, the triple differential cross sections (TDCSs) for simultaneous ionization and excitation of helium are calculated. The wave function of the ejected electron is chosen to be orthogonal or non-orthogonal to the wave function of the bound electron before ionization. It is found that the orthogonality has a strong effect on the TDCS, especially when plane waves and Coulomb waves are used to describe the projectile and the ejected electron.

“…Electron-impact ionization processes are used in a diverse range of fields, such as radiation physics, plasma physics, atmospheric physics, astrophysics and electron microscopy, [1] and have been subject to numerous theoretical [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10] and experimental [11][12][13][14][15] studies. In recent decades, high-resolution measurement has made high-order interaction terms discernible, especially in extreme conditions such as plasma environments and strong electric, magnetic, or laser fields, etc.…”
