Description
This book is based upon a part of the invited and contributing talks at the 25th International Symposium on Ion-Atom Collisions, ISIAC (biennial), held on July 23–25, 2017 in Palm Cove, Queensland, Australia. To aid the general reader, all the authors tried to present their chapters in the context of the development of the addressed particular themes and the underlying major ideas and intricacies. Some chapters contain new results that have not been previously published elsewhere. Whenever possible, the authors made their attempts to connect the basic research in atomic and molecular collision physics with some important applications in other branches of physics as well as across the physics borders. It is hoped that the material presented in this book will be interesting and useful to the beginners and specialists alike. The contents and expositions are deemed to be helpful to the beginners in assessing the potential overlap of some of the presented material with their own research themes and this might provide motivations for possible further upgrades. Likewise, specialists could take advantage of these reviews to see where the addressed themes were and where they are going, in order to acknowledge the fruits of the efforts made thus far and actively contribute to tailoring the directions of future research. Overall, this book is truly interdisciplinary. It judiciously combines experiments and theories within particle collision physics on atomic and molecular levels. It presents state-of-the-art fundamental research in this field. It addresses the possibilities for significant and versatile applications outside standard atomic and molecular collision physics ranging from astrophysics, surface as well as cluster physics/chemistry, hadron therapy in medicine and to the chemical industry. It is then, as Volume 2, fully in the spirit of the 'Aims and Scope' of this book series by reference to its 'Mission Statement'.Contents: Projectile Electron Spectroscopy and New Answers to Old Questions (I Madesis, A Laoutaris, T J M Zouros, S Nanos and E P Benis) Soft X-Ray Emission Following Charge Exchange at Solar Wind Velocities (R T Zhang and C C Havener) Ionization of Large Biomolecules by Fast Heavy Ions (L C Tribedi) Young-Type Interference Effects in Heavy-Ion Collisions with Diatomic Molecules (R D Rivarola, C A Tachino, O A Fojón and M F Ciappina) Wave Packet Scattering in Intermediate-Energy p-He Collisions (L Nagy, F Járai-Szabó, S Borbély, T Arthanayaka, B R Lamichhane, A Hasan and M Schulz) Double Ionization of Helium by Fast Electrons (M J Ambrosio and L U Ancarani) Interaction Potentials for Atoms in Front of a LiF(001) Surface (M S Gravielle, J E Miraglia and G A Bocan) A Bottom-Up Approach for Ion-Water Interactions: From Clusters to Bulk (R Rodríguez-Segundo, D J Arismendi-Arrieta and R Prosmiti) The Stopping Power of Hydrogen for Protons and Antiprotons (J J Bailey, I B Abdurakhmanov, A S Kadyrov and I Bray) Physics Models for Monte Carlo Simulations in Carbon Ion Therapy (S Guatelli, D Bolst, Z Francis, S Incerti, V Ivanchenko and A B Rosenfeld) Theory of Heavy Ion Collision Physics for Hadron Therapy (Dževad Belkić) Readership: Graduate students, junior and senior researchers in: atomic/molecular/nuclear physics/astrophysics, plasma physics, particle transport physics, medical physics (radiotherapy).Ion-Atom/Molecule Collisions;Charge Exchange;Ionization;Monte Carlo Simulations;Hadron Therapy0Key Features: Judicious thematic combinations of chapters by prominent contributing authors covering experiment and theory in one unified and appealing framework: from concepts to implementations and applications to vastly different problems Open exposition of dillemae, intricacies and controversies with the aim to enable a further progress in the field of ion-atom and ion-molecule collisions: both the strength and weaknesses of the existing methodologies are exposed Connection to hadron therapy by providing not only the...
