Michel Barat passed away in November 2018 at the age of 80 after a rich career in atomic and molecular collisions. He had participated actively in formalizing the electron promotion model, contribuing to low energy reactive collisions at the frontier of chemistry. He investigated electron capture mechanisms by highly charged ions (HCI), switched to collision induced cluster dissociation and finally to UV laser induced fragmentation mechanisms of biological molecules. During this highly active time he created a laboratory, organized ICPEAC and participated actively in the administration of research. This paper covers the 10 years when he mentored my scientific activity in the blossoming field of electron capture by HCI. In spite of an impressive number of open channels, Michel found a way to capture the important parameters and to simplify the description of several electron capture processes; orientation propensity, electron promotion, true double electron capture, transfer ioni...

回顾带高电荷离子的原子碰撞物理学，向米歇尔·巴拉特致敬

米歇尔·巴拉特（Michel Barat）在原子和分子碰撞方面有着丰富的职业生涯，于2018年11月去世，享年80岁。他积极参与了电子促进模型的形式化，为化学领域的低能反应性碰撞做出了贡献。他研究了通过高电荷离子（HCI）捕获电子的机制，转换为碰撞诱导的团簇解离，最后转变为UV激光诱导的生物分子碎片化机理。在这段非常活跃的时间里，他创建了一个实验室，组织了ICPEAC，并积极参与了研究管理。本文涵盖了他指导我在HCI蓬勃发展的电子捕获领域的科学活动的10年。尽管开放频道数量众多，Michel找到了一种捕获重要参数并简化对几种电子捕获过程的描述的方法。取向倾向，电子促进，真正的双电子捕获，转移离子...
