Within the framework of a scattering model for electrons leaving the
solid, the location of emission of Auger electrons ejected by highly
charged H-like and He-like ions impinging on Al(111) can be
determined when comparing the Auger electron spectra at observation
angles 
and 
with respect to the surface plane.
The distinct modifications of the spectra due to plasmon energy loss
structures allow to attribute locations of emission to specific K-Auger
processes of H-like and metastable He-like 
ions and
at 1 eV per charge experimental vertical kinetic energy.
