Popis: We present results of an experiment using decelerated U91+ ions, extracted from the GSI-ESR storage ring, and transmitted through a thin silicon crystal in channeling conditions. Charge state at emergence, secondary electron multiplicity and X-rays are measured simultaneously. These conditions allow to study the competition between mechanical electron capture (MEC) and radiative electron capture (REC) as a function of impact parameter. We observe that REC is the dominant charge exchange process for the best channeled ions, i.e. those travelling always far from the silicon target core electrons. For ions with high transverse energy, MEC into highly excited states is counterbalanced by enhanced ionization arising from a succession of close collisions along atomic rows.
