Abstract
The Glauber theory is extended to the inelastic Coulomb scattering, such as the Coulomb excitation in ionized atomic systems. The evaluation is made for excitation cross sections of hydrogen-like ions by electron impact. It is found that values of total cross sections calculated by this approximation are in better agreement with recent experimental results in an intermediate energy region than those calculated by other methods.Keywords
