Popis: Cross sections for single electron capture by ${\mathrm{Si}}^{q+}$ ($2\ensuremath{\le}q\ensuremath{\le}9$) incident on atomic and molecular hydrogen have been measured in the relative-collision-velocity range (3.1-6.3)\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}${10}^{8}$ cm/s. All measured cross sections decrease monotonically with relative velocity and scale roughly as ${q}^{N}$. The values of $N$ needed to fit the data range from \ensuremath{\sim}2 to \ensuremath{\sim}3 and increase with velocity. Cross sections averaged over incident charge states $q$ for molecular hydrogen are larger than for atomic hydrogen, becoming twice as large for relative velocities greater than 4\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}${10}^{8}$ cm/s. For the limited cases where comparison was possible, we found the classical-trajectory Monte Carlo calculation to give a good account of the experimental results.
