    Abstract. The strong potential Born theory for charge transfer in fast, asymmetric ion-atom collisions has been extended to allow for nuclear resonant scattering using distorted nuclear waves. In the absence of a nuclear resonance, the semiclassical result is recovered. A large variation in the capture probability is found when the projectile energy passes through the resonance. As examples, we present results for the capture from the target K shell in the collisions of protons with 22Ne and 28Si, as well as for capture from the K and L shells of 58Ni in collisions with protons, and of I6O, "Ne and 28Si by He2+ impact. 1
