Very recently, we have reported the first measured differential cross sections for transfer excitation in p-He collisions at 25, 50, and 75 keV impact energy. A comparison with double excitation data and with nonperturbative time-dependent calculations indicated that dynamic couplings between the motion of the heavy particles and the electronic transitions and/or electron-electron correlation effects must play a role in these processes [1].

Refined calculations on the basis of the eikonal approximation for the extraction of differential cross sections give a more definite answer: they show that it is the quantal nature of the heavy particle-electron coupling that produces experimentally observed structures in double ratios of transfer-excitation to single capture and double to single excitation cross sections.
