Abstract
We investigate the contribution of interatomic Coulombic decay induced by ion impact in neon and argon dimers (Ne2 and Ar2) to the production of low-energy electrons. Our experiments cover a broad range of perturbation strengths and reaction channels. We use 11.37 MeV/u S14 +, 0.125 MeV/u He1+, 0.1625 MeV/u He1+, and 0.150 MeV/u He2+ as projectiles and study ionization, single and double electron transfer to the projectile, as well as projectile electron loss processes. The application of a COLTRIMS reaction microscope enables us to retrieve the three-dimensional momentum vectors of the ion pairs of the fragmenting dimer into Neq+-Ne1+ and Arq +-Ar1+ (q= 1, 2, 3) in coincidence with at least one emitted electron. © 2013 American Physical Society.
