Coulomb Interactions in Nuclear and Atomic Few-Body Collisions (Finite Systems and Multiparticle Dynamics)

This fully illustrated resource examines three-body systems where the Coulomb interaction plays an important role. Contributions focus on nuclear physics and atomic physics-in the low-energy regime-as well as on collision phenomena. Covering experimental and theoretical work, chapters discuss the direct calculation of collision amplitudes using momentum-space integral equations and the screening method for handling Coulomb effects; the coordinate-space wave function analysis; time-dependent methods; the H-(e-pe-) system; and atomic and molecular three-particle systems.
