Abstract

The authors have discovered multipoles of even order to about 10 in the multipole moments characterising angular distributions of convoy electrons ejected by swift ions during penetration of thin solids. They suggest the strongly transverse distributions observed reflect electron loss from excited n, l states inside the solid, which, though rapidly created and destroyed, progress toward finite dynamic equilibrium populations. Alternative interpretations are also discussed.
