Abstract

Different applications and modifiications of the translational energy spectroscopy are described which are used for the study of ion-atom- as well as electron-atom-collisions. In the first case charge changing, collisions between multiply charged ions and atoms are analysed with respect to initial and final state populations and results of collision experiments with state prepared multiply charged ions are discussed. In the case of electron-atom-collisions the translational energy spectrometer has been used as metastabledetector yielding, state-selective cross sections for multiple ionization by electron impact.
