Overview

This book reviews the major progress made in the fields of atomic, molecular and optical physics in the last decade. It contains eleven chapters in which contributors have highlighted the major accomplishments made in a given subfield. Each chapter is not a comprehensive review, but rather a succinct survey of the most interesting developments achieved in recent years. This book contains information on many AMO subfields and can be used as a textbook for graduate students interested in entering AMO physics. It may also serve researchers who wish to familiarize themselves with other AMO subfields.Contents: Atomic Processes in Thermonuclear Fusion Plasmas (R K Janev) Atomic and Molecular Processes in Muon-Catalyzed Fusion (J S Cohen) Progress in Atomic Collisions with Multiply Charged Ions (C L Cocke) Cooler Storage Rings: New Tools for Atomic Physics (R Schuch) Atomic Collisions with Laser Excited Targets (N Andersen) Progress in Atomic Collision Theory: The Semiclassical Close-Coupling Model and the Physics It Describes (W Fritsch) Recent Progress in Atomic Photoionization with Synchrotron Radiation (F Wuilleumier) Classifications and Properties of Doubly Excited States of Atoms (C D Lin) Atomic and Molecular Multiphoton Processes in Intense Laser Fields (S I Chu) Atoms in Static Electric and Magnetic Fields (S Watanabe) Atomic Collisions with Surfaces (J Burgdorfer) Readership: Graduate students and researchers in atomic, molecular and optical physics.
