      Absolute cross sections for electron impact single and multiple ionization of argon ions leading to the formation of Ar q + (q = 2–8) are reported. The animated crossed beam method is applied in the energy range extending from the respective thresholds up to 2.5 keV. The maximum cross sections for the multiply charged products Ar q + (q = 2–8) are measured to be (12.6 ± 0.6) × 10−17 cm2 for Ar2+, ...
