High-energy Ion-atom Collisions: Proceedings Of The 4th Workshop On High-energy Ion-atom Collision Processes Held In Debrecen, Hungary, 17-19 September 1990 (lecture Notes In Physics)

High-energy ion-atom collisions are subject of intense investigation in present-day atomic physics. They give fundamental information on the collision mechanism of ions and atoms, and on their highly excited states. This book includes invited survey talks, and invited contributions, all carefully refereed. The topics covered are electron capture and loss (including ionization), double electron and resonance processes, electron correlation and post-collision interaction effects, collisions of antiparticles with atoms, and so forth. A collection of essays designed to reflect recent developments in the study of high-energy ion-atom collisions, and the information they provide on the collision mechanisms of ion and atoms. Topics covered include electron correlation, the collision of antiparticles with atoms and more.
