Abstract
Relative cross sections for electron-impact ionization of the rare-gas Van der Waals dimers , ArKr, , KrXe, and have been measured with a mass spectrometer in the electron energy range from threshold to 180 eV. The following appearance potentials for direct ionization from the corresponding neutral dimers have been found: : 15.2±0.2 eV, Ar: 14.0±0.2 eV, : 13.45±0.3 eV, Kr: 12.2±0.2 eV, and : 11.75±0.3 eV. These values agree with those obtained in recent photoelectron studies. The appearance potential of formation via associative ionization of argon atoms is found to be 14.6±0.2 eV.
