Abstract
Low-energy continuum-electron emission along the beam direction (i.e., at 0-degree) has been investigated for collisions of 4.4 keV/u O8+ wi th H-2, He, and Ar targets. At this energy, forward-ejected, low-energ y continuum electrons were found to be associated only with outgoing p rojectiles that underwent bound-state capture; that is, no coincidence s were observed between continuum electrons and outgoing projectiles r emaining in the initial charge state. These results are consistent wit h previous results for O6+ +He and suggest that the electron-electron interaction is important in giving rise to low-energy continuum electr ons at 0-degree.
