Model for the production of circular polarization via beam-foil interaction

摘要: Electron capture by protons in the tail of electron density at a metal surface is investigated. The ion velocity assumed to be large compared an lowest orbit hydrogen. transition probabilities into 2p states hydrogen are calculated, analogous first Born approximation extending model Trubnikov and Yavlinskii [1] tilted foils nonzero angular momentum captured electron. From matrix Stokes parameters calculated. results give partial agreement with experimental data, especially for sinusoidal dependence circular polarization on foil tilt angle.
