Abstract
In the past two decades, the electron–ion merged-beams technique has extensively been exploited at heavy-ion storage rings equipped with electron coolers for spectroscopic studies of highly charged ions as well as for measuring absolute cross sections and rate coefficients for electron–ion recombination and electron-impact ionization of multiply charged atoms ions. Some recent results are highlighted and future perspectives are pointed out, in particular, in view of novel experimental possibilities at the FAIR facility in Darmstadt and at the Cryogenic Storage Ring at the Max-Planck-Institute for Nuclear Physics in Heidelberg.
