Recent advancements in experimental techniques now allow for the study of fully differential cross sections for 4-body collisions. Theoretical fully differential cross sections will be presented and compared with absolute experimental data for transfer-excitation in proton-helium collisions. The role of different scattering mechanism will be discussed.

Recently experimental fully differential cross sections (FDCS) have been reported for double capture in proton helium collisions which disagree with existing theoretical calculations by two orders of magnitude. We introduce here a theoretical model for charge transfer processes which is fully quantum mechanical and takes all post collision interactions (PCI) between the particles into account exactly. The results of this model are in much better agreement with experimental data.
