Using the projectile-ion-recoil-ion coincidence method, relative cross sections for single-electron capture, single ionization, double-electron capture, transfer ionization and double ionization in collisions of multiply charged O6+ ions with helium atoms have been measured at 0.86, 1.5, 1.94 a.u. velocities. Calculations based on the semi-classical over-barrier model in the framework of independent electron approximation is employed to discuss various competing reaction mechanisms. These results are also compared with other experimental and theoretical results available in the velocity range considered.
