Plenum Press, New York, 1990, 329 pp.
This book is devoted to the investigation of a rather prevalent process in nature:
interaction of atoms with electromagnetic radiation. Primary attention is given to the
low and intermediate photon energy region, from tens to hundreds of electron-volts.
It is in this region that the probability of photon absorption and photoionization is
largest. Data in this energy region are very interesting and useful in astrophysics and
plasma physics, solid-state physics and quantum electronics, and in a number of other
branches of science and technical applications.
Contents
Introduction
The Structure of the Atom and Its Interaction with an Electromagnetic Field
Photoabsorption in the One-Electron Approximation
The Random-Phase Approximation with Exchange
Results from Calculations in the Random-Phase
Generalization of the Random-Phase Approximation
Improvements in Photoabsorption Theory
Double-Vacancy States
Conclusion
