This Open Access book gives a comprehensive account of both the
history and current achievements of molecular beam research. In
1919, Otto Stern launched the revolutionary molecular beam
technique. This technique made it possible to send atoms and
molecules with well-defined momentum through vacuum and to measure
with high accuracy the deflections they underwent when acted upon
by transversal forces. These measurements revealed unforeseen
quantum properties of nuclei, atoms, and molecules that became the
basis for our current understanding of quantum matter. This volume
shows that many key areas of modern physics and chemistry owe their
beginnings to the seminal molecular beam work of Otto Stern and his
school. Written by internationally recognized experts, the
contributions in this volume will help experienced researchers and
incoming graduate students alike to keep abreast of current
developments in molecular beam research as well as to appreciate
the history and evolution of this powerful method and the knowledge
it reveals.
