Electron-impact ionization of atomic hydrogen at 2 eV above threshold

Atomic Physics 2009-10-31 v3 Computational Physics

Abstract

The convergent close-coupling method is applied to the calculation of fully differential cross sections for ionization of atomic hydrogen by 15.6 eV electrons. We find that even at this low energy the method is able to yield predictive results with small uncertainty. As a consequence we suspect that the experimental normalization at this energy is approximately a factor of two too high.
