Scientific paper

Recent data from the Voyager missions indicate the presence of high-energy protons from the magnetospheres of Jupiter and Saturn which collide with the upper atmospheres of those planets. Accurate cross sections are needed to model such phenomena. In this paper, photon emission cross sections measurements from transitions in the CO2+ ions produced in collisions of positive ions with CO2 are reported. The data indicate that the Bethe-Born theory may be used to describe the cross sections. Comparison is made with other work on ions at lower bombarding energies, with total ionization cross sections using positive ions, and with electron-impact data.
