X-RAYS EMISSION OF HYDROGEN-LIKE AND HELIUM-LIKE ARGON IN INTERACTION WITH Mo METALLIC SURFACE

14-GHz electron cyclotron resonance ion source (ECRIS) at the Heavy Ion Research Facility National Laboratory in Lanzhou has been used to investigate the radiative deexcitation of highly charged Ar17+ and Ar16+ ions as they interact with a molybdenum surface. The interaction of Ar17+ and Ar16+ ions above Mo Metallic Surface has been studied by looking at the X-rays with a Si (Li) detector. ECRIS is used in our work for the first time. As the experimental results, the X-ray spectra of Ar17+ and Ar16+ ions interacting with a Mo metal target have been given. The capture of many electrons by Ar17+ and Ar16+ ions, at low velocities, near a metallic surface, has been studied. Hollow atoms produced in the interaction of highly charged ions with a Mo metallic surface have been observed.
