Direct experimental measurement of electron impact ionization‐excitation branching ratios 4. Branching ratios and cross sections for O 2 + at 100 eV
The 100‐eV ionization of molecular oxygen has been studied by the ( e ,2 e ) electron‐electron coincidence method. Ionization to the ground state and five excited states of O 2 + has been detected. Of these six electronic states, ionization to three, the X 2 Π g , a 4 Π u , and b 4 Σ g − states, was...
