An (e,2e) experiment is the measurement of an electron impact
ionization process where both the exiting electrons are detected in
coincidence. Such measurements are almost at the limit of what can
be known, in quantum mechanical terms, and its description presents
a substantial theoretical challenge. There are at least two very
good reasons for studying (e,2e) and related processes. In the
first place we are now only beginning to understand the dynamics of
the collision process. The range and sophistication of present
experiments allow us to identify kinematic regimes where delicate
and subtle effects can be observed, stretching current theories to
their limit. Secondly, the multiple coincident technique offers us
the possibility of an analytical tool that could be used to probe
the structure of the target, be it atom, molecule, thin film or
surface. Measurements are now being performed at threshold on H, on
the inner shell levels of Au and Ag using projectiles at
relativistic energies, with spin-polarized electrons on Li, on a
myriad of molecules in symmetric, noncoplanar kinematics, and on He
in a multitude of different geometries. The technique has recently
been extended to excitation ionization (e,3e) and (gamma,2e)
experiments. Major theoretical advances have also been made, but
much still remains to be done. This volume contains the invited
papers that were presented at the Workshop on (e,2e) and related
processes which took place in September/October 1992 in Cambridge,
UK. The three major review papers which it contains together form
an excellent introduction to this new and rapidly expanding area of
physics and set the scene for the wide range of research
contributions, both experimental and theoretical, from the leading
scientists in the field.
