Abstract
Single- and double-electron capture in He2++He collisions and single-electron capture in He++He+ collisions are studied systematically using a travelling molecular orbital (MO) method within a semiclassical formalism. Present results identify the origin of the discrepancy seen between theoretical results previously obtained for He++He+ collisions and give a theoretical rationale to the low-energy behaviour of cross sections for the single-electron capture process in He2++He collisions previously observed experimentally.
