Abstract
The present experimental investigation of the PI of Sc2+ ions is among the first studies on multiply charged transition metal ions using the merged-beams method. Due to the high photon flux available at the ALS PI cross sections could be measured with low statistical uncertainty even at relatively low-ion densities. This opens up promising prospects for further studies with more highly charged ions.
