"Atomic and Molecular Beams" reviews the state of the art in this field both theoretically and experimentally, while simultaneously investigating the many possible applications. The topics covered include among others:
- laser cooling and manipulation of atoms and molecules
- alignment, relaxation and condensation in supersonic jets
- spectroscopy, state imaging and photodissociation in molecular beams
- elementary molecular collisions and reaction dynamics
production and properties of clusters and nanoparticles
- beam interactions with surfaces.
With many contributions from leading researchers, including several Nobel Prize laureates, this volume will serve as a long-lasting source of reference on all aspects of fundamental research into or using atomic and molecular beams.
