Electron-impact double-ionization cross sections differential in the a
ngles of the two ejected electrons have been measured at impact energi
es of 422 and 1052 eV. The energies of the ejected electrons were fixe
d at 100 eV each. The cross sections are very different at the two inc
ident energies. At 1052 eV the ejected electrons are preferentially fo
und in the forward direction with respect to the incident beam. At 422
eV they are found in the forward and backward directions with approxi
mately equal probability. The 422-eV cross sections are largest when t
he incident-electron and ejected-electron momentum vectors lie in a co
mmon plane. The observations are discussed in the context of several m
odels for double ionization. [S1050-2947(98)08301-2].
