Abstract Using particle x-ray coincidence techniques, the probability forK shell ionization has been measured absolutely at two impact parameters for collisions of 5.8 MeV/amu208Pb on Ag and Au. In the asymmetric collision system Pb-Ag, the 1sσ excitation probability of the PbK shell is 2.2% at 25 fm impact parameter, and an exponential probability distribution falls off too quickly to account for the measured total cross section. For the symmetric system Pb-Au, the latter conclusion is also made for the 2pσ excitation probability although in this case, the probability is much larger being 29% at 42 fm.
