Dissociative excitation of the singly charged manganese ion in collisions of electrons with manganese diiodide molecules

详细

The dissociative excitation of the singly charged manganese ion in collisions of electrons with MnI₂ molecules is experimentally studied. At exciting electron energy of 100 eV, 16 dissociative excitation cross sections were measured. The studied transitions occur within the quintet and septet term systems in the absence of intercombination transitions. The measured values of the cross sections are compared to similar values obtained previously in studies of e–MnCl₂ and e–MnBr₂ collisions.
