Ionization processes in collisions of open-shell atoms. III - The autoionizing states of nitrogen

Results of a study of the energy spectra of electrons produced in collisions of N atoms with inert gases at low keV energies are reported. Ionization here is partly due to production of the (1Dnl) autoionizing states of nitrogen and partly due to another mechanism, which is presumably quasi molecular Auger ionization. A discussion of the assignments of the autoionizing states is presented.
