Abstract
The electron impact ionization cross-sections of mono- and di-positive ionic targets are calculated using a second version of the modified binary-encounter-dipole (MBED) model, previously reported [M A Uddinet al, J. Phys. B37, 1909 (2004)]. The present version differs from the previous one in the scale factor of the Burgess denominator and is applicable to targets with chargesq = 1 and 2. The MBED in the present form is found to work well for 11 ionic targets ranging from Be+ to K+ and complements its previous version valid for targets withq s> 2
