Low-Energy Electron Scattering from Molecules, Biomolecules and Surfaces

Herausgeber: Carsky, Petr; Curik, Roman

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Written for students and researchers in chemistry and physics, this reference reports on recent theoretical and experimental developments in electron-molecules collisions. It presents a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of the practical aspects of electron scattering, which until now could only be found in diverse special topics reviews. This book is written in a manner that allows the non-expert understand the importance of recent developments in solving practical problems in electron scattering in fields such as plasma physics, microelectronics, DNA research, and astrochemistry. Figures, tables, and equations are included within the chapters to aid with reader comprehension.
