The absolute cross sections for negative and positive ions formations of the nucleic acid base - adenine were found using the crossed electron and atomic beam technique. Energy dependences and absolute values of the total cross sections of formation of positive and negative ions of adenine were obtained. The maximum value of the ionization cross sections for the production of positive ions at the 85eV energy reaches (2,8±0,6)∙10-15 cm2. The maximum value of the negative ion formation cross section reaches (6,0±1,2)∙10-18 cm2 at (1,1±0,15) eV energy. Mass spectra of adenine molecules were measured and also the partial cross sections of dissociative ionization were found.References
