Abstrakt: The atom-atom-ion three-body recombination (TBR) of mixed 4 He and X - (X = H or D) systems is investigated by solving the Schrödinger equation using the adiabatic hyperspherical representation method. It is shown that the dominant products after a TBR in the ultracold limit (E ≤ 0.1 mK × k B ) are different for the two systems. For the 4 He 4 HeH - system, the rate of TBR into the 4 HeH - ion is nearly two orders of magnitude larger than that of TBR into the neutral 4 He 2 molecule. In contrast, the yield of 4 He 2 is a little higher than that of 4 HeD - for the 4 He 4 HeD - system. Furthermore, since the adiabatic potentials become more attractive and the nonadiabatic couplings become much stronger by substituting D for H in the 4 He 4 HeH - system, the total TBR rate for the 4 He 4 HeD - system is nearly two orders of magnitude larger than that for the 4 He 4 HeH - system.
