| Popis: |
The major goal of this research program is to determine, experimentally, accurate absolute cross sections for dielectronic recombination (DR) in multiply and singly charged atomic ions. Our initial measurements of DR in C3+ are designed to provide a “bench mark” cross section for a simple atomic system. The experiment determines energy averaged DR cross sections for a well defined process involving a specific stabilizing transition. The fields in the region where dielectronic recombination occurs can be made small (≅ 0.25 V/cm) in order to minimize the effect of Stark mixing which is expected to enhance the DR process. We are presently adding the capability to apply known mixing fields up to 5 V/cm in the electron-ion interaction region of our apparatus. |
