Abstract
The time evolving electronic density and current of the active outer e lectron in 1-2 keV Li+-Na(3p) collisions have been calculated and grap hed. The corresponding time-dependent electronic wavefunction is provi ded by the 28 coupled molecular state calculations of the preceding pa per with a common translation factor. The mechanism of the alignment e ffect for charge exchange from initially aligned Na(3p0 degrees/90 deg rees) or Na(3p45 degrees/-45 degrees) is clearly seen in the graphs of the current.
