This book introduces and reviews both theory and applications of
polarizational bremsstrahlung, i.e. the electromagnetic radiation
emitted during collisions of charged particles with structured,
thus polarizable targets, such as atoms, molecules and clusters.
The subject, following the first experimental evidence a few
decades ago, has gained importance through a number of modern
applications. Thus, the study of several radiative mechanisms is
expected to lead to the design of novel light sources, operating in
various parts of the electromagnetic spectrum. Conversely, the
analysis of the spectral and angular distribution of the photon
emission constitutes a new tool for extracting information on the
interaction of the colliding particles, and on their internal
structure and dynamical properties. Last but not least, accurate
quantitative descriptions of the photon emission processes
determine the radiative energy losses of particles in various
media, thereby providing essential information required for e.g.
plasma diagnostics as well as astrophysical and medical
applications (such as radiation therapy). This book primarily
addresses graduate students and researchers with a background in
atomic, molecular, optical or plasma physics, but will also be of
benefit to anyone wishing to enter the field.
