Modified Version of Revised Deutsch-Mark Model for Electron Impact K-Shell Ionization Cross-Sections of Atoms at Relativistic Energies

摘要

A simple modification of the revised Deutsch-Mark model (RDM) [Deutsch et al., Int J Mass Spectrom 2004, 233, 13] incorporating both the ionic and relativistic corrections is proposed to investigate the K-shell ionization of 30 atomic targets with atomic numbers Z = 1-92 for incident energies up to 2 GeV. We also revisit our earlier models: modified Bell (MBELL) (Haque et al., Phys Rev A 2006, 73, 012708) and modified Kolbenstvedt (MKLV) (Uddin et al., Eur Phys J D 2006, 37, 361), for the K-shell ionization cross sections at these ultra-relativistic energies. The results from the modified version of RDM (MRDM), MBELL, and MKLV models agree well with the available experimental data and quantum mechanical calculations.
