Abstract: 
Theoretical and experimental results are presented for the electron-impact ionization of Sc2+ in the gear-threshold energy region where strong resonance features due to dielectronic capture processes are found. The indirect ionization contributions are calculated:in the close-coupling approximation. Both absolute and scan measurements for the ionization cross section are obtained in a crossed-beams experimental geometry. The overall agreement between theory and experiment is good, once a sufficient number of singly; excited states are included in the close-coupling expansion. The additional states allow a proper theoretical determination of the decay pathways available to the resonances formed following dielectronic capture of the incident electron.
