Formation of anions and cations via a binary-encounter process in OH${}^{+}$ + Ar collisions: the role of dissociative excitation and statistical aspects

E. Lattouf, Z. Juhász, J. -Y. Chesnel +8

Molecular fragmentation leading to the formation of negatively and positively charged hydrogen ions in 7-keV OH${}^{+}$ + Ar collisions is investigated experimentally. The most strikin…
