Abstract

In this report we focus on electron emission from solids by composite projectiles (such as molecules, clusters or heavy ions) which consist of a multitude of components such as electrons, protons or bare atomic nuclei. We present a selection of recent results concerning electron emission by swift hydrogen clusters ( ν p > 1 a.u.) and fast (> 2 MeV/u) heavy ions. Topics discussed include electron yields, energy and angular distributions and channeling phenomena. We also discuss electron acceleration by multiple collision sequences in slow collisions.
