Cross sections differential in angle and ejection energy for electron production by proton impact on nitrogen, oxygen, neon, and argon have been measured using electrostatic analysis and counting of individual electrons. The range of proton energies was 50-300 keV, the angles ranged from 10° to 160°, and the electron energies were measured from 1.5 to 1057 eV. Integrations over angle and/or electron energy yielded singly differential and total electron production cross sections. Our total cross sections for oxygen fall halfway between previous data of deHeer et al. and Hooper et al., but our argon cross sections agree better with deHeer …

Angle and energy distributions of electrons ejected from single- and multishell atoms by 50-to 300-keV protons are compared with various theoretical treatments. Partial cross sections for each subshell are calculated by scaling according to the number of electrons and the binding energy and then are added. The Born approximation fails at large and at small angles but yields fair agreement at intermediate angles. The treatments of Salin and of Macek, which take account of the influence of the projectile after the collision, yield much improved agreement at small angles. The binary-encounter model is used to calculate cross sections which are …
