Ionic products have been observed in collisions of alkali atoms an.1 halogen molecules in the eV region. The energy dependence of t.Ys total cross sections for ion-production has been measured for K, Na and Li on Br2 and a discussion of the results is given based on the Landau Zener formula.

โฆ Synopsis
A comparatively simple interpretation of the method of Firsov [Sov. Phys. JETP 21, 1001 (1951)] is used to calculate symmetric resonant charge transfer cross sections for the first 20 (nontransition) elements H through Ca in the range of low and intermediate collision velocities (ยฃ1.0 1 10 8 cm/s). The results obtained show good agreement with corresponding experimental data and with the theoretical results of Sakabe and Izawa [ATOMIC DATA AND NUCLEAR DATA TABLES 49, 257 (1991)]. Discrepancies between the two sets of theoretical data are discussed.
