The aim of the book is to give a coherent and comprehensive account
of quantum scattering theory with applications to atomic, molecular
and nuclear systems. The motivation for this is to supply the
necessary theoretical tools to calculate scattering observables of
these many-body systems. Concepts which are seemingly different for
atomic/molecular scattering from those of nuclear systems, are
shown to be the same once physical units such as energy and length
are diligently clarified. Many-body resonances excited in nuclear
systems are the same as those in atomic systems and come under the
name of Feshbach resonances. We also lean heavily on semi-classical
methods to explain the physics of quantum scattering -- especially
the interference seen in the angle dependence of the cross section.
Having in mind a wide readership, the book includes sections on
scattering in two dimensions which is of use in surface physics.
Several problems are also included at the end of each of the
chapters.
