Abstract

Translational energy spectra have been obtained for capture-dissociation of 6 keV H+2 in collision with inert gas targets. Energy loss measurements provide further evidence in support of a double-collision mechanism for the production of H+ and H− fragments via an intermediate H∗2 molecule.
