Abstract
A statistical approach to the description of inner-shell ionization is presented in terms of a random walk in energy space of particle-hole excitations on interacting level crossings to unoccupied states. It describes impact-parameter dependent and total cross sections for K and L shell excitations in symmetric and near-symmetric atomic collisions accurately in terms of only one parameter related to the density of levelcrossings.
