Electron–Atom Collisions : : Quantum-Relativistic Theory and Exercises / / Maurizio Dapor.

Electron collisions with atoms, ions, and molecules have been investigated since the earliest years of the last century because of their pervasiveness and importance in fields ranging from astrophysics and plasma physics to atmospheric and condensed matter physics. Written in an accessible yet rigor...
