Description

Individual L subshell ionisation cross sections for proton and He+ ion bombardment of heavy targets, Dy to U, have been measured for the ion energy range 1 to 3 MeV. It has been shown that ECPSSR predictions are good for ion energies above about .7 MeV/a.m.u., but below this significant ion velocity dependent discrepancies occur, especially for the L2 subshell. A semi-empirical solution to this problem is outlined. It is suggested that the Coulomb deflection factor for the L shell be replaced. With the new approach experimentally observed results for ion energies down to 150 keV/a.m.u. can be predicted
