Radiative double electron capture (RDEC), occurring when two electrons are captured to a projectile ion with the simultaneous emission of a single photon, has been investigated. RDEC can be considered as the time inverse process of double photoionization. Strong evidence for RDEC is found in F9+ + N2 collisions and additionally for one‐electron F8+ for which the probability for the process is expected...
