Three-dimensional cross sections for electron impact ionization of atoms and molecules

Recently the non-relativistic convergent close-coupling method has been extended into the relativistic domain [1]. When applied to electron impact collision processes for highly charged hydrogen-like ions, the RCCC method that utilizes relativistic kinematics and the Coulomb interaction in the absen...

When applied to electron impact collision processes for highly charged hydrogen-like ions, the RCCC method that utilizes relativistic kinematics and the Coulomb interaction in the absence of QED Breit and Mller corrections is suitable for target ions with atomic number Z up to Z 30.
