Abstract

Lyman α and Lyman β from excited He⁺ formed in 60–4000‐eV (c.m.) He²⁺‐Li collisions have been observed using a crossed‐beam apparatus. The data show that He⁺(3l) is the predominant reaction product. The maximum measured cross section for production of He⁺(3l) is ∼11 Å² at about 1300 eV relative energy.
