Coulomb radial matrix elements for Auger and Coster-Kronig transitions to K-, L{sub 1}-, L{sub 2}-, and L{sub 3}-shell vacancies in singly ionized atoms have been calculated with relativistic Dirac-Hartree-Slater wave functions. Results are tabulated for atomic numbers Z = 6-87 for the K shell and Z = 12-92 for the L subshells. These matrix elements can be used to calculate approximate Auger rates in multiply ionized atoms; the matrix elements are expected to be very useful for the computation of Auger rates in molecules and can be applied in computations of valence-band Auger lineshapes in solids.
