Radiative double electron capture for 2.11 MeV/u F9+,8+ + N2, Ne

The first successful observation of radiative double electron capture for gas targets is reported. RDEC has been observed for 2.11 MeV/u F9+,8++N2, Ne collisions. Cross sections for both projectile charge states and targets were determined and compared with previous results and theory. This abstract gives an overview of the results found for both gas targets.
