We report observations of simultaneous electron excitation and electro
n capture in ion-atom collisions of 97-MeV Ca18+ and Ca19+ in an argon
gas target. X-ray spectra at energies near 3.9 keV were collected usi
ng a high-resolution x-ray spectrometer. We have resolved transitions
from doubly excited 1s2l2l' and 1s2l3l' states to singly excited 1s(2)
2l' and 1s(2)3l' states in lithiumlike calcium. The observed transitio
ns lie at energies close to the 1s2s-1s2p resonance transitions in hel
iumlike calcium. We compare the experimental wavelengths and intensiti
es with relativistic Hartree-Fock calculations, and discuss the excita
tion mechanisms.
