Abstract
Electron capture from H-2(+) by fast positron impact is studied theore tically by using a model of two molecular scattering centers. Differen tial cross sections are obtained within the first Born approximation. The influence of the orientation angle of the molecular axis on the re action is analyzed. Analogy with Young's interference experiment is es tablished. Comparison With proton impact is made.
