Polarization effect in (e, 2e) collisions of argon

Calculations of the triple differential cross section (TDCS) for electron impact ionization of the Ar(2p) orbital in a highly asymmetric geometry, using modified distorted wave Born approximation (DWBA) methods, are reported. The role of the polarization effect in (e, 2e) collisions of Ar(2p) is considered in the calculations, and the calculated results shows that the polarization potential is particularly important
