Abstract
Electron impact ionization of atoms is an important collision process whose knowledge is of relevance in several fields, e.g. in the physics of the upper atmosphere, in plasma formation, and in gas discharges. The understanding of the ionization reaction, e - + A → A + + e - + e -, has seen continuous improvement through numerous studies in the last three decades. Most of this improvement has come from the detailed investigations of the triple differential (e,2e) cross section, theoretically as well as experimentally.
