We publish three Roadmaps on photonic, electronic and atomic collision physics in order tocelebrate the 60th anniversary of the ICPEAC conference. Roadmap III focusses on heavyparticles: with zero to relativistic speeds. Modern theoretical and experimental approachesprovide detailed insight into the wide range of many-body interactions involving projectiles andtargets of varying complexity ranging from simple atoms, through molecules and clusters,complex biomolecules and nanoparticles to surfaces and crystals. These developments have beendriven by technological progress and future developments will expand the horizon of the systemsthat can be studied. This Roadmap aims at looking back along the road, explaining the evolutionof the field, and looking forward, collecting nineteen contributions from leading scientists inthe field.
