    Applications of multiple ionization cross sections

    Hi there. I'm working with this stuff of multiple ionization (in particular, double ionization). There are some references I've found on the applications in applied physics for this theoretical work, for example, plasma physics, accelerator physics, radiotherapy, which are listed in some papers...

    Equations with multiple solutions

    Given the equation (x+4)(2-x)=x+4 How come it's wrong to divide both sides by x+4? Should it not give the same solution as multiplying out the left side and solving the quadratic equation?
