Abstract
A review is presented on recent developments in ultra-soft x-ray emission spectroscopy. Especially, instrumental developments related to high resolution studies of free molecules and to the use of synchrotron radiation are discussed. The most recent results from three different applications of ultra-soft x-ray emission spectroscopy are presented : electron excited spectra of free molecules, monochromatized synchrotron radiation excited spectra of solids and photon emission following charge transfer in slow ionatom collisions.
