We derive an analytical formula for the first Born approximation amplitude for the ionization of general neutral atomic targets by charged particle impact. An orthogonalized Coulomb wave function is used to describe the ejected electron. The triple differential cross-section is written in a computationally efficient analytic form.

In the framework of the one Coulomb wave model, an analytical formula is derived for the triple differential cross section for the ionization of atomic target by electron impact. Both the direct and exchange terms of the transition amplitude are considered. The exchange term is calculated in the present work. However, the direct term is deduced from our previous work (Sahlaoui and Bouamoud. Can. J. Phys. 88, 905 (2010)). The obtained results can be used to compute the transition amplitude defined in others models, as for example, the distorted wave Born approximation and the Coulomb two-wave model. The mathematical techniques developed here can be also used to compute other complicated integrals that can be encountered in atomic physics and quantum chemistry.
