Strong forward-backward asymmetries in electron emission from overlapping resonance states in fast C/sup 3 +/ on He collisions

Abstract

Autoionizing electrons from the configuration 1s/sup 2/2pnl produced by transfer and excitation were measured for 2.5 to 5.0 MeV C/sup 3 +/ + He-gas collision employing the method of zero-degree Auger spectroscopy. The elctron analyzer was operated with an energy resolution of 300 MeV (FWHM), which corresponds to the projectile rest frame energy resolution (approx.40 MeV). (WRF
