Abstract
Orbital angular momentum () distributions of ions in intermediate and states have been compared for 1.5-5-MeV carbon ions traversing C foils and He gases by projectile Auger spectroscopy. The degree of high- enhancement in C targets is quantitatively established. A picture involving multiple collisions between target atoms and the entrained electrons which accompany the ions explains the results.
