Abstract
A merged beam apparatus is described that has been developed to study mutual neutralization. Initially, it has been used to measure cross sections for H+/H- neutralization for centre-of-mass energies between 3 and 500 eV. The results are in excellent agreement with those of Szucs et al. (1984), which covered the range from 5 to 2000 eV, and with inclined beam measurements of Peart et al in the overlapping range of energies from 30 to 500 eV. There is also good accord with a variety of recent theoretical results, notably those by Sidis et al. (1983) Fussen and Kubach (1986) and Shingal and Bransden.Keywords
