Abstract

Double differential cross sections (DDCS) of electrons emitted from vapor water molecules (in vapor phase) by 2.0 MeV/u and 3.75 MeV/u bare oxygen ion impact have been measured by continuum electron spectroscopy technique. The ejected electrons were detected by an electrostatic hemispherical deflection analyzer over an energy range of 1–600 eV and emission angles from 20∘ to 160∘. The DDCS data has been compared with the continuum-distorted-wave-eikonal-initial state (CDW-EIS) approximation and a reasonable agreement was found with both version of the models i.e. post and prior version. By numerical integration of the DDCS data, the single differential cross section (SDCS) and total ionization cross section (TCS) were obtained. The obtained TCS results were compared with other available TCS results for water target within the same energy range. The total ionization cross sections values are seen to saturate as the projectile charge state (q p ) increases, which is in contrast to the first-Born predicted q p 2 dependence. This is also in contrast to the prediction of the CDW-EIS models.
