    Resonant transfer and excitation (RTE) involving simultaneous electron capture and projectile K-shell excitation has been measured for calcium ions in charge states ranging from neon like to hydrogen like incident on molecular hydrogen over an energy range 100-370 MeV. The results establish a projectile charge-state dependence for RTE and provide a detailed test of theoretical calculations. The effect of the target-electron momentum distribution on the RTE process is demonstrated by comparing with previous results for calcium ions incident on helium. © 1986 The American Physical Society
