Electron Emission in Heavy Ion-Atom Collisions

by Roberto D. Rivarola, Nikolaus Stolterfoht, Robert D. DuBois

Book Overview

Electron EM reviews the theoretical and experimental work of the last 30 years on continuous electron emission in energetic ion-atom collisions. High incident energies for which the projectile is faster than the mean orbital velocity of the active electron are considered. Emphasis is placed on the interpretation of ionization mechanisms. They are interpreted in terms of Coulomb centers associated with the projectile and target nuclear fields which...
