Tóm tắt

TheL X-ray spectra of Au in collision with carbon and oxygen projectiles in the energy range of 0.25 to 0.75 MeV amu−1 have been measured. From the energy shifts and the yield-ratio shifts of theL 1,L α,L η andL γ lines relative to those for the 3.5 MeV proton bombardment, the experimental values for the multiple ionisation probabilitiesp M4,5 andp N4 as a function of the projectile energy have been determined. The results show that the geometrical model of Sulik et al. provide a much better description of the heavy ion data than the first-order theory of McGuire and Richard.
