Abstract

This progress report, in addition to describing recent work in the authors' laboratory, highlights the general character and importance of electron collisions with highly-charged ions (HCI) and describes major advances in the field since the previous conference on the subject. Thus, while the authors' principle efforts are currently directed toward investigation of excitation of HCI, there have been very notable advances by others in the areas of ionization and recombination and an attempt is made to put these into context of the field in general. Also, for the first time, significant progress is now being made by others in experimental investigation of elastic scattering of electrons from HCI.
