Abstract
The mean charge, , has been measured for projectiles exiting thin carbon foils at velocities . It is observed that increases strongly with with a broad peak occurring at . It is shown that much of the enhancement can be accounted for by post-foil Auger decay of projectile inner-shell vacancies.
