Abstract
The prior (i), post (f), and distorted wave (dw) forms of the first Born approximation, and a one-parameter approximate helium wave function, are used to calculate cross sections for electron capture from by protons. These cross sections are calculated for capture into , ; , for impact energies, keV, leaving the residual ion . The associated polarizations are calculated for the axis of quantization of H parallel to the direction of incidence, and the apparent cross sections are obtained from and the calculated cross sections . The used to determine are and the arithmetic average of and . Of these two sets, predicts the measured more successfully for keV, and the measured better for keV. For larger values of both sets predict the measured values equally well. In the range keV, the effect of is more marked for capture into than into .
