Abstract: 
We present an experimental and theoretical study of symmetric Xe54+ Xe collisions at 50, 30, and 15 MeV/u, corresponding to strong perturbations with v(K)/v(p) = 1.20, 1.55, and 2.20, respectively (v(K) is the classical K-shell orbital velocity and v(p) is the projectile velocity), as well as Xe53+ Xe collisions at 15 MeV/u. For each of these systems, x-ray spectra are measured under a forward angle of 35 degrees with respect to the projectile beam. Target satellite and hypersatellite radiation K alpha(s)(2,1) and K alpha(hs)(2,1), respectively, are analyzed and used to derive cross-section ratios for double-to-single target K-shell vacancy production. We compare our experimental results to relativistic time-dependent two-center calculations.
