1 Introduction

Ionization processes in the field of ion-atom collision have been studied for several decades[1-5]. Because this type research gives a way to understand few-body associated with the quantum dynamics, and the results can be vastly used in many fields[1-4].With the continuous development of the experiment technique known as COLTRIMS (cold-target recoil-ion momentum spectroscopy)[2,6], the usually tiny projectile's scattering angle can be indirectly obtained by measuring the ionized electron and recoil ion momenta. Consequently, fully differential cross sections (FDCS) for ion impact can be measured with high precision, and provide a very stringent test of the theory. In 2006, kinematically complete experiments have been performed by Schulzetal.[7]for single ionization of helium by 75 keV proton impact in the complete three-dimensional space. Interestingly, some unexpected structures are founded. Such studies have proven to be extremely powerful as they yield fully differential cross sections and therefore provide the most sensitive tests of theoretical models describing few-body dynamics in ionization processes. However, on the theoretical side, only a limited number of calculations have been carried out for the fully differential cross sections. For example, the continuum distorted wave-eikonal initial state (CDW-EIS) method[8]and the three-body distorted wave (3DW) method[2]have been extended to calculate the FDCS for single ionization of helium by proton impact in the scattering and perpendicular planes. But the GA method[9]and 6DW method[10]even have not been used to calculate the out-of-plane. Furthermore, although the calculations can qualitatively reproduce some structures, there are still substantial differences between theoretical predictions and experiment, especially for the perpendicular plane. Therefore, further theoretical analysis and calculations seem to be appropriate and necessary.

The generation of unexpected structures, which were found from the measurement data, have been reported due to the high-order effects[7]. For instance, the well-known two-peak structure at aboutθe=±30oand the interesting minimum atθe=0oin the perpendicular plane[11]was explained in terms of the interference between the projectile-ejected electron and the projectile-target core (PI) interactions in P+He. Many theories have been used to explain the role of PCI and PI for ion impact. The results showed that the PCI and PI effects are considerable important. Therefore, we will apply the extended modified Coulomb-Born approximation theory[12]to analyze the FDCS for the single ionization of helium by proton impact at the incident energy of 75 keV in both the scattering plane and the perpendicular plane. At the same time, we employ the present method to examine that the angular distribution of the ejected electron can be significantly influenced by the postcollision interaction.

We also detailedly assess how the distorted effects contribute to the structure of the emission pattern in both the scattering plane and the perpendicular plane. It is showed that the major contribution to the cross-section around the binary peak in the scattering plane and structures in the perpendicular plane comes from the initial channel perturbation potential. But with the increasing transverse momentum transfersqt(the transverse component of momentum transfersq), the contribution of the distorted effects becomes more and more important to the FDCS in both scattering and perpendicular planes. Atomic units are used throughout unless otherwise noted.

Postcollision interaction and distorted effects on fully differential cross sections for single ionization of helium by proton impact

The modified Coulomb-Born (MCB) approximation is applied to study single ionization of helium by 75 keV proton impact. Fully differential cross-sections (FDCS) are calculated using the MCB theory in both the scattering plane and the perpendicular plane for the first time. The results are compared with the experimental data and the MCB without postcollision interaction (MCB-noPCI) calculations. It is found that the present MCB calculations qualitatively reproduce the experimental peak structures, especially in the perpendicular plane. And the PCI has a profound impact on the shape of the fully differential cross section in both the scattering plane and the perpendicular plane. The contribution of the distorted effects to the FDCS is also analyzed in the scattering and perpendicular planes. It turns out that, with the increasing momentum transfers (difference between the initial and scattered projectile momentum), the role of the distorted effects becomes more and more important. In particular, the distorted effects qualitatively predict the structures at negative angles region at all momentum transfers in the scattering plane.
