The first triple coincidence detection of the scattered energy loss electron and the sequential cascading photons, 667�8 nm 31 D → 21P and 58�4 nm 21P → 11S, from the electron impact excitation of the 31D state of helium is reported. An experimental method for identification and determination of the triple coincidences and initial results is reported. The measurement is the final experimental step in determining all the information to define completely the excited 3D state.

Recent advances in describing the electron impact excitation of the 31D state of helium are reported for an incident energy of 40 eV and scattering angles from 10° to 40°. Measurements of the Stokes parameters have been made using the polarized photon–photon and electron–photon coincidence techniques. The partial cross section σm for the magnetic sublevels in the collision frame indicate that the m = 0 excitation is favoured. For the above scattering kinematics the data are in agreement with convergent close coupling calculations. The deduced scattering amplitudes, in the natural frame, show that the m = 2 excitation becomes dominant at the larger angles. Progress is reported on the complete determination of the scattering amplitudes and their relative phases using the triple-coincident detection of the scattered electron with the two sequential cascading photons.
