During the last two decades the explorations of di?erent processes
accom- nyingion-atom collisions
athigh-impactenergieshavebeenasubjectofmuch interest. This interest
was generated not only by the advent of accelerators of
relativistic heavy ions which enabled one to investigate these
collisions in an experiment and possible applications of obtained
results in other ?elds of physics, but also by the variety of
physical mechanisms underlying the atomic collisional phenomena at
high impact energies. Often highly charged projectiles produced at
accelerators of heavy ions are not fully stripped ions but carry
one or more very tightly bound el- trons. In collisions with atomic
targets, these electrons can be excited or lost and this may occur
simultaneously with electronic transitions in the target. The
present book concentrates on, and may serve as an introduction to,
th- retical methods which are used to describe the
projectile-electron transitions
occurringinhigh-energycollisionsbetweenionsandneutralatoms.Special-
tention is given to relativistic impact energies and highly charged
projectiles. Experimental results are used merely as illustrations
and tests for theory. This book will be useful to graduate students
and professional scientists who are interested in studying atomic
collisions occurring at high-impact - ergies. It assumes that the
reader possesses the basic knowledge in classical electrodynamics
and nonrelativistic and relativistic quantum mechanics.
