Abstract
Channeling phenomena have been extensively studied in the last twenty years, and have been shown to be very helpful for the more general study of ion-matter interactions. However, the experimental work has been mostly performed with light projectiles, protons or alpha particles, and also electrons and positrons, over the whole range of available energies, from a few keV to several hundreds of GeV. Channeling investigations with heavy ions have been mainly performed with moderately heavy ions of Tandem energies, that is, between 1 and 3 MeV/u, and particularly by the Oak Ridge group in a nice series of experiments. It can be expected that channeling studies of very fast heavy ions, then in high charge states, will reveal specific properties of their interactions with matter.
