Abstract
Sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) is a widely used insulator in the industry, but it also has a high global warming potential. Studying electron impact ionization of SF6, particularly measuring the energy and angular distributions of the collision products, can provide valuable information about the underlying physics of the collision process and the nature of SF6 molecule. In this study, double differential cross sections (DDCSs) for electron impact ionization of SF6 have measured using a crossed beam experimental setup. The incident electron beam, with an energy range of 50-350 eV, was directed towards a target gas composed of SF6, and scattered electrons were detected as a function of the energy and scattering angle. The findings of this study offer significant insights into the molecular structure of SF6 and will contribute to enhancing the understanding of charged particle interactions involving SF6.
