Electron-Impact Single Ionization of C4+


Ionization Cross Section vs. Energy for C4+ Legend:
Circles - ORNL data (1996)
Squares - ORNL data (1978)
Solid line (red) - Lotz formula (6% metastable)

Reference: M. E. Bannister et al., unpublished (1996).

Absolute uncertainty: 13% typical near peak of cross section

Estimated metastable fraction of target ions: 6%
