Abstract
Be-, CuBe-, Cu- and Al-targets are bombarded by single A+ and A0 in the energy range from 1 to 20 keV. The secondary electrons accelerated by 20 keV are counted by a proportional counter backed by a multichannel analyser. The probability distributionP n of emission ofn=0,1, 2, 3, ... secondary electrons can be found from the pulse height distribution. WhenP n is known the yield for A+ and A0 can be calculated. The counting of neutrals in the energy range investigated is discussed.
