Abstract
The transition between the ionic state of correlated with +, and the covalent states correlated with is studied. The processes whereby the diffuse electron of is carried off by the proton dominate the neutralization cross section. This asymmetry effect is used to explain an (apparent) disagreement between experimental results of neutralization cross sections at high impact energies.
