We have measured the Ne K-shell electron spectra from a Ne gas target bombarded by 0.5--10 MeV H$sup +$ and 14--21 MeV N, 24--35 MeV O, 3--35 MeV F, and 40 and 50 MeV Cl in various incident ionic charge states. The F K-shell Auger-electron spectra have been measured for F-ion collisions with Ne gas from 3 to 15 MeV. Auger-electron production cross sections are deduced. H$sup +$ induced Ne K-shell Auger-electron production cross sections are compared to various theoretical Coulomb ionization predictions. The heavy-ion--induced Ne K- shell Auger-electron production cross sections increase with increasing projectile charge state at constant projectile energy. The F and Ne K-shell Auger-electron production cross sections from 3 to 15 MeV are favorably compared to calculations based on the molecular-orbital model. (AIP)
