Auger electrons are emitted due to surplus energy in the atom.

In this article, Auger electrons are assumed to be emitted upon only electron bombardment. But they can be emitted upon the ion bombardment as well. So I think this article needs to be more general. -- Mindgame123 05:50, 3 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Is this the same as "Auger decay"? Jeff Knaggs 10:28, 26 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Pronunciation

The article previously specified the pronunciation of Auger as /oʊˈʒər/. This strikes me as completely absurd (does anybody say that?). In French of course it's [oʒe], which in Britain at least tends to be approximated as /oʊˈʒeɪ/ or similar. -- TJollans (talk) 06:58, 18 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
