The total and delayed K-Auger-electron emission of Ne, N₂, and SF₆ targets was investigated after 1.4-MeV/u Kr¹⁸⁺ and Ar¹²⁺ impact. The lines of promptly decaying 1s2lnl^' (n>~3) states observed nanoseconds after projectile impact demonstrate that selective electron capture from neutral target atoms into outer-shell orbitals of slow recoils is an important production mechanism for certain states in highly stripped target atoms. Contributions of prompt and delayed excited states are observed as well as specific cascades to inner-shell states.
