Determination of Electron-Capture Cross Sections with Swarm-Beam Techniques

Abstract
A method is described which combines electron‐swarm and electron‐beam techniques to obtain absolute electron‐capture cross sections as a function of electron energy. As examples of the method, data on Cl from ortho‐chlorotoluene (approximately 1 eV) and O from oxygen (approximately 7 eV) are presented and discussed.
