Abstract
In this manuscript, we present our calculations of detailed electron-impact single ionization cross-sections for tungsten ions, spanning charge states W38+− W45+. The level-to-level distorted-wave method implemented in the flexible atomic code (FAC) was used for calculation. Comparison between the present level-to-level distorted wave treatment and previous configuration-averaged calculations has been performed for the W45+ ion, and we explore the possible reason for the difference observed between two calculations. We demonstrate the importance of radiative damping on the total electron-impact ionization cross-section for the W43+ ion. Present calculations provide missing cross-sections for W38+− W45+. The data obtained are expected to be useful for modeling plasmas for fusion applications, especially for the ITER community.

Abstract
We report triple differential cross-sections (TDCSs) for the electron impact single ionization of tungsten atoms for the ionization taking place from the outer sub shells of tungsten atoms, viz. W (6s), W (5d), W (5p) and W (4f). The study of the electron-induced processes such as ionization, excitation, autoionization from tungsten and its charged states is strongly required to diagnose and model the fusion plasma in magnetic devices such as Tokamaks. Particularly, the cross-section data are important to understand the electron spectroscopy involved in the fusion plasma. In the present study, we report TDCS results for the ionization of W atoms at 200, 500 and 1000 eV projectile energy at different values of scattered electron angles. It was observed that the trends of TDCSs for W (5d) are significantly different from the trends of TDCSs for W (6s), W (5p) and W (4f). It was further observed that the TDCS for W atoms has sensitive dependence on value of momentum transfer and projectile energy.
