Theoretical study demonstrates a one-dimensional integral formulation for electron capture cross sections in hydrogenic collisions, enabling simpler high-energy state-to-state calculations.
We present a method for the calculation of cross sections for electron capture from an arbitrary n,l,m shell of a hydrogenic target atom into an arbitrary n^',l^',m^' shell of a fast hydrogenic projectile in the continuum-intermediate-state approximation. We reduce the scattering amplitude to a one-dimensional integral in real space. The numerical results are presented for the reaction H⁺+H(2l)→H(3l^')+H⁺. Comparison is made with a recent eikonal calculation.
