In this work, we present absolute multiple ionization cross sections of He,
Ne, Ar, Kr, and Xe by impact of He+  in  the energy range from 1.0 MeV up
to 3.5 MeV. The present results are compared with the previous ones by
DuBois . We have analyzed our results within the framework of Bethe Theory
and a quite good agreement with the results from literature for electron
impact is found.
