The role of charge-exchange processes in probing hydrogen plasma with a heavy ion beam

Charge-changing processes of low-charged ions, used in hydrogen plasma probing by the heavy ion beam probe method, are considered. Along with the ionization of beam ions by plasma electrons and protons, the charge-exchange processes of ions on H atoms and protons are also studied. It is shown that c...
