During the last two decades the experimental investigation of
atomic coherence phenomena has made rapid progress. Detailed
studies have been performed of angular correlations, spin
polarization effects, angular momen tum transfer, and the alignment
parameters which characterize the charge cloud of excited atoms.
The enormous growth in the number of these investigations was made
possible through substantial development and application of new
experimental technology, the development of sophisti cated
theoretical models and numerical methods, and a fine interplay
between theory and experiment. This interplay has resulted in a
deeper understanding of the physical mechanisms of atomic collision
processes. It is the purpose of the chapters in this book to
provide introductions for nonspecialists to the various fields of
this area as well as to present new experimental and theoretical
results and ideas. The interest in spin-dependent interactions in
electron-atom scattering has a long history; it dates back to the
early investigations of Mott in 1929. While the more traditional
measurements in this field were concerned with the determination of
spin polarization and asymmetries, the range of investi gations has
been expanded enormously during the last few years and now includes
many observables sensitive to one or more of the various spin
dependent interactions. The understanding of these effects requires
a theoretical description of the orientation and alignment
parameters of the target atoms, of the forma tion of resonances, of
the influence of electron-exchange processes, and of the
relativistic interactions inside the atom and between projectile
and target."
