Abstract [en]
We measured the product-state distribution and its dependence on the hydrogen isotope for the mutual neutralization between 16O+ and 1,2H− at the double electrostatic ion-beam storage ring DESIREE for center-of-mass collision energies below 100 meV. We find at least six product channels into ground-state hydrogen and oxygen in different excited states. The majority of oxygen products populate terms corresponding to 2𝑠22𝑝3(4𝑆∘)4𝑠 with 5S∘ as the main reaction product. We also observe product channels into terms corresponding to 2𝑠22𝑝3(4𝑆)3𝑝. Collisions with the heavier hydrogen isotope yield a branching into these lower excited states smaller than collisions with 1H−. The observed reaction products agree with the theoretical predictions. The detailed branching fractions, however, differ between the theoretical results, and none of them fully agree with the experiment.
