Abstract
The classical over-barrier ionization model (COBI) method and trajectory calculations were utilized to simulate the ionization of He+ impacted by a positron. The calculated ionization cross sections of He+ agree with other theoretical data. Additionally, we found that the double ionization of He has a definite association with the positron-He+ impact. This result can explain why doubly ionized He seemed to be positron-scattered by the rest of the He+ in our previous study. The COBI model was also extended to study the double ionization caused by positron-Ne impacts. Our theoretical results agree with the experimental data.
