The rapid and still ongoing development of recoil-ion momentum spectroscopy (RIMS) during the last ten years can undoubtedly be viewed as an experimental breakthrough for the investigation of any kind of atomic reaction dynamics. Whenever atoms or simple molecules interact with electrons, ions or photons, the concept of high—resolution recoil-ion measurements resulted in additional and complementary information compared to the traditional electron spectroscopy methods, and in some cases even kinematically complete data sets could be collected for the very first time. State—of—the—art high-resolution recoil-ion momentum spectrometers evolved through numerous technical developments like, e.g., the implementation of cold supersonicjet targets, the use of well defined electric extraction fields for recoil ions as well as for electrons and the rapid progress in charged particle detection techniques. Among them the use of supersonic jets to produce well localized and internally cold targets (COLd Target Recoil-Ion Momentum Spectroscopy COLTRIMS) can be viewed as the most important ingredient. They allowed one to achieve a recoil-ion momentum resolution far below 1 a.u. (atomic unit) that would be impossible with room-temperature targets due to the thermal motion (the momentum spread of room-temperature helium atoms is about 3.7 a. u.). Another decisive development was the invention of completely novel and extremely efficient electron—imaging concepts.
