Abstract
Total and differential cross sections for the production of fast Kr2+ ions in collisions of He+, Ne+ and Ar+ with Kr were measured at primary energies below 500 eV. In the system Ar++Kr most of these reactions occur in close collisions and are accompanied by a large momentum transfer. For Ne++ Kr collisions the angular distribution in the centre of mass system is approximately isotropic over a wide angular range. The cross section values for the Kr2+ production amount to 1% of the total charge transfer cross section in the investigated energy range.
