Indirect contributions to electron-impact ionization of Li+ (1s2s S1 3) ions: Role of intermediate double- K -vacancy states

Fine details of the cross section for electron-impact ionization of metastable two-electron Li+ (1s2s 3S1) ions are scrutinized by both experiment and theory. Beyond direct knockoff ionization, indirect ionization mechanisms proceeding via formation of intermediate double-K-vacancy (hollow) states e...
