Download or read book Classical and Quantal Calculations on Electron Capture written by Robert A. Mapleton and published by . This book was released on 1967 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Classical and quantal nonrelativistic scattering between simple atomic systems is reviewed, and most approximations currently used in calculations on electron capture are discussed. The OBK interaction is generalized to include capture from neutral atoms by singly charged many-electron ions; the sum over the squares of the vector coupling coefficients is affected in the formula for the OBK cross section for p-orbital capture by protons into H(ns). The cross section for H(+) + H(1s) to H(Sigma n1) + H(+) at high impact energies is determined classically. The second Born amplitudes at high impact energies for H(+) + H(1s) to H(1s) + H(+) and H(+) + D(1s) to H(1s) + D(+) are evaluated approximately using the Green's function of the post Hamiltonian. Two modifications of Thomas' classical model for heavy atoms are proposed, and corresponding cross sections are calculated for H(+) + B to H(Sigma n1) + B(+) with B = O, N, Ne, A, Kr, Xe. A semiclassical theory is developed for charge transfer in alkali atom-alkali-ion collision at low impact velocities, and cross sections are obtained for H, Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs. OBK cross sections are calculated for s-orbital capture from He(1s(2)), N((4)S), O((3)P), and p-orbital capture from N((4)S), O((3)P), all for incident protons capturing into H(1s). Born prior and post cross sections are calculated for H(+) + O((3)P) to H(1s) + O(+)((4)S) and H(1s) + H(1s) to H( - )(1s(2)) + H(+).

Download or read book Atomic Physics of Highly Charged Ions written by Erhard Salzborn and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains the invited lectures and contributed papers presented at the V International Conference on the Physics of Highly Charged Ions, which was held at the lustus-Liebig-Universi tat Giessen, 10-14 September 1990. This conference was the ftfth in a series -after Stockholm (1982), Oxford (1984), Groningen (1986) and Grenoble (1988) -to deal with a rapidly growing fteld, which comprises the spectroscopy of highly charged ions and their interactions with photons, electrons, atoms, ions, and solids. Most of the matter of the universe is in the ionized state. Investigations dealing with hot plasmas on earth have been greatly furthered by thermonuclear-fusion research. The increasing maturity of this programme has revealed the fundamental role of highly charged ions in fusion plasmas. Today, it is clear that a detailed knowledge of the production mechanisms of highly charged ions and their interactions with other plasma constituents is an important prerequisite for a better understanding of the microscopic and macroscopic plasma properties. The study of highly charged ions involves various branches of physics. It was the aim of the conference to bring together physicists working in atomic collisions and spectroscopy, in plasma physics and astrophysics, as well as in solid-state and ion-source physics. About 220 scientists from 20 nations attended the conference, indicating the strong worldwide interest and the vital ity of research in this fteld.

Download or read book The Physics of Multiply and Highly Charged Ions written by F.J. Currell and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Highly charged ions are the most chemically reactive species known to mankind. This reactivity is due to the extremely large potential energy they posses. This textbook deals with the wide range of interactions which occur when such ions interact with other forms of matter, especially solid surfaces and gasses. Particular emphasis is placed on situations where the kinetic energy associated with the interactions is small so that the effects of the high potential energy are most apparent. Experimental and theoretical techniques of investigation are covered in addition to the findings they produce. The treatment aims to be instructive to the beginner while leading on to a level where the newest findings are reviewed. As such the text is suitable for final year undergraduates, postgraduates or experienced researchers.
Download or read book Geochemistry written by Harry Y. McSween and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2003 with total page 381 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written expressly for undergraduate and graduate geologists, this book focuses on how geochemical principles can be used to solve practical problems. The attention to problem-solving reflects the authors'belief that showing how theory is useful in solving real-life problems is vital for learning. The book gives students a thorough grasp of the basic principles of the subject, balancing the traditional equilibrium perspective and the kinetic viewpoint. The first half of the book considers processes in which temperature and pressure are nearly constant. After introductions to the laws of thermodynamics, to fundamental equations for flow and diffusion, and to solution chemistry, these principles are used to investigate diagenesis, weathering, and natural waters. The second half of the book applies thermodynamics and kinetics to systems undergoing changes in temperature and pressure during magmatism and metamorphism. This revised edition incorporates new geochemical discoveries as examples of processes and pathways, with new chapters on mineral structure and bonding and on organic matter and biomarkers. Each chapter has worked problems, and the authors assume that the student has had a year of college-level chemistry and a year of calculus. Praise for the first edition "A truly modern geochemistry book.... Very well written and quite enjoyable to read.... An excellent basic text for graduate level instruction in geochemistry." --Journal of Geological Education "An up-to-date, broadly conceived introduction to geochemistry.... Given the recent flowering of geochemistry as an interdisciplinary science, and given the extent to which it now draws upon the fundamentals of thermodynamics and kinetics to understand earth and planetary processes, this timely and rigorous [book] is welcome indeed." --Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta
