Irradiation of water and other molecules of biological interest by heavy ion beams is studied. Distorted wave models are employed to investigate the corresponding inelastic collisions. Cross sections for electronic capture, ionization, and excitation processes are determined as well as equilibrium charge-states and electronic stopping power. The influence of multiple ionization in liquid water radiolysis is analyzed.Read less <
