Abstract

New experimental and theoretical results are presented which, in conjunction with previous experiments, allow us to determine cross sections for each of the ionization pathways leading to

{Ne}^{+}

and

{Ne}^{+ 2}

formation in

H^{+}

+ Ne collisions in the 0.5-4 MeV range. It is found that multiple outer-shell ionization is far more probable than inner-shell ionization.
