Abstract
Atomic physics with accelerated ion beams and lasers was initiated by the work of ANDRÄ and his collaborators in 1973 [1]. The primary motivation for those early experiments was to find a solution for the problem of cascade in atomic lifetime measurements by the fast ion beam technique [2]. It was quite clear that, whenever applicable, selective excitation by laser light would be in many ways superior to previous unselective collisional excitation by gaseous or thin solid targets [3]. More recently, the development of high resolution technique applicable on fast beams has given rise to an interesting combination between fast ion beam technology [4] and more traditional laser spectroscopy methods [5]. We will survey the first few results with emphasis on experimental aspects and possible future developments.
