Abstract

The process of formation of excited Cs ions in simple collisions of electrons with CsI molecules was investigated by the method of extended intersecting beams. Excitation cross sections measured for CsII spectral lines were used in the calculation of cross sections for excitation of energy levels. The contribution of cascade transitions to the total cross section for excitation of an energy level was determined for certain levels. Possible ways of formation of Cs+* at low energies of the electrons are discussed.
