Abstract
We present a study of the electron impact ionisation for the transition metal series formed by filling the 3d electron shell. Such studies have been relatively untried because of the difficulties associated with the theory modelling and because of the experimental difficulties with forming the target beams. In the past decade the experimental progress in the measurements has been very good. For example a comprehensive set of measurements has now been performed by Freund et al., Shah et al.2 and Bolorizadeh et al.3 for many of the heavier targets. This new experimental information has provided us with the impetus to carry out the theoretical study reported here.
