A recent rejuvenation of experimental and theoretical interest in the physics of few-body
systems has provided deep, fundamental insights into a broad range of problems. Few-body …

Multichannel atomic spectra frequently exhibit such extraordinary visual complexity that they
appear at first glance to be uninterpretable. The present review discusses how to unravel …

Graduate Texts in Physics publishes core learning/teaching material for graduateand
advanced-level undergraduate courses on topics of current and emerging fields within …

Since the invention of quantum mechanics, even the simplest example of the collisional
breakup of a system of charged particles, e−+ H→ H++ e−+ e−(where e− is an electron and …

We present the convergent close-coupling theory for the calculation of electron-helium
scattering. We demonstrate its applicability at a range of projectile energies of 1.5 to 500 eV …

We review topics of current interest in the physics of electronic, atomic and molecular
scattering in the vicinity of thresholds. Starting from phase space arguments, we discuss the …

The paper presents an integrated view of the population structure and its role in establishing
the ionization state of light elements in dynamic, finite density, laboratory and astrophysical …

We extend the convergent-close-coupling method for the calculation of electron-hydrogen
scattering to hydrogenlike targets, atoms, or ions. These include H, Li, Na, and K, atoms, as …

The substantial progress that has occurred during the 1990s in the field of electron-atom-
collision theory is discussed. We show how a solution of a small-model three-body problem …
