Description

Employing the crossed-beam technique, we have measured absolute cross sections for neutralization of H-- ions in collisions with multiply charged ions Neq+(q≤4) and Arq+, Xeq+(q≤8) at center-of-mass energies ranging from 20 to 200 keV. . . It is found that th cross sections are independent of the target ion species. The data are in excellent agreement with quantum calculations. A universal scaling law for the neutralization cross section is given
