Über diesen Titel

Inhaltsangabe

This series, Finite Systems and Multipartide Dynamics, is intended to provide timely reviews of current research topics, written in a style sufficient­ ly pedagogic so as to allow a nonexpert to grasp the underlying ideas as well as understand technical details. The series is an outgrowth of our involvement with three interdisciplin­ ary activities, namely, those arising from the American Physical Society’s Topical Group on Few-Body Systems and Multipartide Dynamics, the series of Gordon Research Conferences first known by the title "Few-Body Problems in Chemistry and Physics" and later renamed "Dynamics of Simple Systems in Chemistry and Physics," and the series of Sanibel Symposia, sponsored in part by the University of Florida. The vitality of these activities and the enthusiastic response to them by researchers in various subfields of physics and chemistry have convinced us that there is a place-even a need-for a series of timely reviews on topics of interest not only to a narrow band of experts but also to a broader, interdisciplinary readership. lt is our hope that the emphasis on pedagogy will permit at least some of the books in the series to be useful in graduate-level courses. Rather than use the adjective "Few-Body" or "Simple" to modify the word "Systems" in the title, we have chosen "Finite. " It better expresses the wide range of systems with which the reviews of the series may deal.

Reseña del editor

This fully illustrated resource examines three-body systems where the Coulomb interaction plays an important role. Contributions focus on nuclear physics and atomic physics-in the low-energy regime-as well as on collision phenomena. Covering experimental and theoretical work, chapters discuss the direct calculation of collision amplitudes using momentum-space integral equations and the screening method for handling Coulomb effects; the coordinate-space wave function analysis; time-dependent methods; the H-(e-pe-) system; and atomic and molecular three-particle systems.
