Angular correlation measurements for electron impact excitation of the 32Pjstates of atomic hydrogen

Abstract

Angular correlation measurements have been made of the L_beta fluorescence arising from the excitation of the 3²P_j states of atomic hydrogen detected in coincidence with electrons scattered with n=3 energy loss. Data are presented for incident energies of 54.4 and 100 eV and electron scattering angles 20 and 25', and compared with the predictions of the first Born approximation.
