Atomic and Molecular Beams

Production and Collimation

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This comprehensive text explores the latest techniques for producing a beam from any substance as well as from the dissociation of hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and the halogens. Focusing on practical application in the laboratory, the author critically reviews over 800 references to compare the atomic and molecular beam formation theories with actual experiments. The book not only provides the basic expressions essential to beam design but also covers the construction of ovens, furnaces, and collimating arrays in metals, plastics, glass, and other materials.

Autorenporträt

C.B. Lucas studied physics and obtained his Ph.D at University College London. He held successive research posts at the UKAEA Culham Laboratory, the universities of Tübingen, York, Münster, and Royal Holloway College of the University of London. The remainder of Lucas' full-time career was in administrative posts, but in his retirement he has kept in contact with the academic world as a part-time tutor for the Open University and particularly in continuing with the research needed to produce this book.
