Hardback. First Edition. Progress in Atomic Spectroscopy. Part C. Shelf wear to edges and corners of D/J. Sunned spine to D/J. or more than a century the field of atomic spectroscopy has played a crucial role in the development of fundamental concepts in physics. During this time fields related to atomic spectroscopy - atomic and ion collision physics, nuclear physics, and particle physics - have also made fascinating and valuable contributions to the understanding of static and dynamical states of atoms and ions. The current state of the art of atomic spectroscopy blends the traditional approaches and techniques with those from related fields. This book expands the work begun in Parts A and B, presenting new topics and updating those areas of atomic spectroscopy that have experienced significant growth in the years since the publication of the first two parts. leading experts in the fields present reviews covering areas of research currently at the forefront of atomic spectroscopy, such as ordering and multiconfiguration calculations of atoms, high-resolution laser spectrosdcopy, resonance ionization spectroscopy, trapped ion spectroscopy, atoms in high magnetic fields, highly excited atoms, recoil ion spectroscopy, spectroscopy of superheavy quasi atoms, and high- and low-energy collisional processess. 617 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions ,and all types of Academic Literature.).

Descrizione articolo

Riassunto

H. J. BEYER AND H. KLEINPOPPEN During the preparation of Parts A and B of Progress in Atomic Spectros­ copy a few years ago, it soon became obvious that a comprehensive review and description of this field of modern atomic physics could not be achieved within the limitations of a two-volume book. While it was possible to include a large variety of spectroscopic methods, inevitably some fields had to be cut short or left out altogether. Other fields have developed so rapidly that they demand full cover in an additional volume. One of the major problems, already encountered during the prepar­ ation of the first volumes, was to keep track of new developments and approaches which result in spectroscopic data. We have to look far beyond the area of traditional atomic spectroscopy since methods of atomic and ion collision physics, nuclear physics, and even particle physics all make important contributions to our knowledge of the static and dynamical state of atoms and ions, and thereby greatly add to the continuing fascination of a field of research which has given us so much fundamental knowledge since the middle of the last century. In this volume, we have tried to strike a balance between contribu­ tions belonging to the more established fields of atomic structure and spectroscopy and those fields where atomic spectroscopy overlaps with other areas.
