Synopsis

A useful starting point for those researching in the field of theoretical and experimental Atomic and Molecular Physics, this book introduces advanced topics of Atomic and Molecular Collision Physics in a comprehensive voice. Srivastava explores Atomic Structure Calculations, Photoionization of Atomic Systems, Electron-atom and Ion-atom Collisions and collisions involving exotic particles, Ultracold atoms and Bose-Einstein condensation, as well as Atomic data and Plasma diagnostics. The book is a means of gaining a crucial background of theoretical Atomic Collision Physics, integral to those working in interrelated research areas.
