Abstract
Differential measurements of electron capture probability are made for close encounters in the reaction +He→H+. The energy range of the incident proton is 1.6 to 180.0 keV and the scattering angle is varied from ½ to 4°. The impact parameters associated with these collisions extend from 0.015 to about 0.50 Å. There is little angular dependence to the data. When is plotted versus energy, a damped resonant structure is seen with peaks at 36, 7, and 2.6 keV with amplitudes of 0.52, 0.16, and 0.05, respectively. The phenomena are discussed in terms of the energy-level diagram for He and with reference to the existing theories for charge transfer in the nonresonant case. Measurements of the inverse reaction, ions incident on atomic hydrogen targets, are also presented and discussed.
