Scattering is one of the most powerful methods used to study the
structure of matter, and many of the most important breakthroughs
in physics have been made by means of scattering. Nearly a century
has passed since the first investigations in this field, and the
work undertaken since then has resulted in a rich literature
encompassing both experimental and theoretical results.
In scattering, one customarily studies collisions among nuclear,
sub-nuclear, atomic or molecular particles, and as these are
intrinsically quantum systems, it is logical that quantum mechanics
is used as the basis for modern scattering theory. In Principles of
Quantum Scattering Theory, the author judiciously combines physical
intuition and mathematical rigour to present various selected
principles of quantum scattering theory. As always in physics,
experiment should be used to ultimately validate physical and
mathematical modelling, and the author presents a number of
exemplary illustrations, comparing theoretical and experimental
cross sections in a selection of major inelastic ion-atom
collisions at high non-relativistic energies.
Quantum scattering theory, one of the most beautiful theories in
physics, is also very rich in mathematics. Principles of Quantum
Scattering Theory is intended primarily for graduate physics
students, but also for non-specialist physicists for whom the
clarity of exposition should aid comprehension of these
mathematical complexities.
