Comment Analytic fits for electron-impact ionization cross sections for Be+. The cross sections calculations take into account of ioinzation of valence electron as well as core 1s electrons. The uncertainty in the original cross sections is 10 %, while the fitted ones have a total uncertainty of 15 %.
