Am. Ermolaev, NEUTRALIZATION OF PROTONS IN ENERGETIC COLLISIONS WITH HYDROGEN-LIKE BERYLLIUM IONS, Journal of physics. B, Atomic molecular and optical physics, 27(19), 1994, pp. 120000671-120000675
A theoretical study of hydrogen production in collisions between proto
ns and hydrogen-like beryllium ions Be3+ is reported, for a proton imp
act energy range between 100 keV and 3 MeV. Cross sections are obtaine
d in close-coupled atomic-orbital calculations within the semiclassica
l impact parameter method. The presented results are relevant to desig
n and interpretation of current experiments at JET where a substantial
flux of neutral hydrogen is observed to be generated at the centre of
the tokamak plasma.
