Quantum Theory of High-Energy Ion-Atom Collisions

By Dzevad Belkic

Fast ion-atom collisions are of paramount importance in many high-priority branches of science and technology, including accelerator-based physics, controlled thermonuclear fusion, plasma and space research, particle transport physics, and more. This book focuses on multifaceted mechanisms of collisional phenomena with heavy ions and atoms at non-relativistic high energies. It provides a state-of-the-art review of the non-relativistic theory of high-energy ion-atom collisions. The author covers the most important theoretical methods currently available, examines cross sections and collisional rates for fast ion-atom collisions, and discusses simultaneous electron transfer and ionization.
