Abstract
These lectures cover special topics about the interaction of swift electrons with condensed matter. The focus is on inelastic processes via the linear response function of the medium and sum rules that it satisfies. The spin dependence of low-energy electron interactions and exchange scattering in an electron gas, and the low-energy end of electron-hole cascades in metals are discussed. Aspects of the localization of initially unlocalized, coherent excitations are entered into briefly.
