Dielectronic recombination in Li+
Abstract
Dielectronic recombination has been investigated for ground-state Li+(1s2) and metastable Li+(1s2s) ions. Absolute recombination rates for the convoluted sum of these configurations are obtained and compared with theoretical calculations. Also, the effect of the space charge on the energy of the observed resonances is investigated as well as the effect of trapped residual ions in reducing the effect of the space charge.
