A simple method is proposed for estimating cross sections for excitation and ionization in collision of atoms with fast multiply charged ions in cases in which the Born approximation is inapplicable. This method is analogous to the approximation of sudden excitations and permits direct generalization to collisions that lead to simultaneous excitation or ionization of two or more electrons.
