Popis: Radiative electron capture (REC) X-ray profiles have been analysed for oxygen ions incident on a variety of gaseous targets. A model for REC is given which includes the effects of binding in both the target and projectile and the target electron momentum distribution. From measurements of the REC line widths the average kinetic energies of the outer-shell target electrons are obtained which are in good agreement with theoretical estimates.
