Abstract

The cross section for production of excited Ne ions with double $K$-shell vacancies is measured by observing the Auger electrons from the decay of these states. A Ne-gas target is bombarded by 1-2-MeV/amu N, O, and F projectiles in various incident charge states. The $K$-shell Auger hypersatellites are observed only for bare nuclear projectiles. The projectile charge-state dependence, projectile $Z$ dependence, and energy dependence of the cross section suggest $K$-shell electron exchange as a production mechanism.
