In the current work, neutral-hydrogen-induced ionization cross sections are calculated within both the continuum distorted wave-eikonal initial state and the 1st Born approximations. The results also obtained are intra-compared in terms of differential as well as total cross sections. Additionally, the rare available experimental data revealed fairly good with the theoretical predictions. Finally, we pointed out strong discrepancies with the proton´s homologs.
