Abstract

Recent Letter of T.Pattard and J.M.Rost (Phys.Rev.Lett 80, 5081 (1998)) suggests that there exist logarithmic corrections to the near threshold cross section for the processes of break up of a particle into several charged fragments. This comment shows that it is incorrect, the logarithmic terms never exist. The cross section for all processes behaves as some power of the above-threshold energy, similarly to the known Wannier problem.
