Abstract
Electron capture cross sections have been computed for Ti4++H to Ti3++H+ and Ti3++H+ to Ti4++H, where the reactants were in their ground states. The energy range investigated was 0.1 to 10 keV amu-1. The impact parameter perturbed-stationary-state method incorporating electron translation factors were used to calculate the cross sections. The molecular wavefunctions were generated using the pseudo-potential method. At 1 keV amu-1 ( nu rel=4.4*107 cm s-1), representative electron capture cross sections for the Ti4++H and Ti3++H+ reactions are 2*10-15 cm2 and 1*10-17 cm2, respectively. An appreciable energy dependence was observed for both cross sections.Keywords
