Abstract
The cross sections for electron ionization by incident heavy, but slow, charged particles are evaluated. Incident particles are described in the plane-wave Born approximation, while relativistic wave functions are used for the atomic electrons. Numerical results are given for holmium and mercury and compared with experimental data for holmium. The results are discussed.
