Unraveling the mechanisms of single- and multiple-electron removal in energetic electron-ion collisions: from few-electron ions to extreme atomic systems. — •Alexander Borovik Jr — I. Physikalisches Institut, Justus-Liebig-Universität Gießen, 35392 Giessen, Germany

For over a half century, electron-impact ionization of ions remains an open topic in atomic physics [1]. While single-electron removal processes in light few-electron systems are currently understood and can be reliably described by theoretical approaches, ionization of many-electron ions, especially multiple ionization, are still not understood completely. In this situation, experiment, where available, is the only reliable source of information [2]. However, as we move to ions in high charge states, requirements on the experimental conditions rise, making new approaches and instrumentation necessary. In the present overview, we describe the current status in the field and report on recent activities that aim at expanding the experimental capabilities by the development of electron guns beyond the state-of-the-art and by employing large heavy-ion accelerator facilities such as FAIR [3].
