Abstract

This Letter reports a first measurement of the fast oscillations in

{Ar}^{+}

on Ar charge-transfer collisions. The high resolution needed to observe these oscillations is obtained with use of crossed ion and atom beams. The observed frequency is very different from that calculated from available

{Ar}_{2}^{+}

potentials. The difference is attributed to spin change between the fine-structure levels of

{Ar}^{+}
