Abstract
A brief review is given of some selected theoretical results obtained recently involving two electron processes in ion-atom collisions. We d iscuss: the removal of the Paul discrepancy; the improvement in the de scription of double ionization of helium; the difficulties being met b y theoretical attempts to describe two-electron charge transfer; a cla ssification scheme for correlated calculations and finally the reprodu ction of the experimental observation of the excitation of a one-elect ron helium ion in collision with a hydrogen atom.
