This is the first volume edited under the additional direction of Herbert Walther.
- Presents absolute cross sections for atomic collisions
- Uses benchmark measurements and benchmark calculations
- Discusses needs for cross-section data in applications
- Contains a guide to data resources, bibliographies, and compendia
Graduate students and researchers in atomic physics, atmospheric science, and chemical physics, as well as cross section users in applied fields.
