Atomic and molecular beam methods
New York : Oxford University Press, 1988-This is the second volume of an advanced handbook on experimental molecular beam methods, in which seventeen specialists cover the areas of molecular beam spectroscopy and surface scattering. It is designed to be used both as a reference book in the laboratory and as a supplementary text for graduate courses in spectroscopy and gas-surface interactions. The text is split into two parts dealing with these two topics. The spectroscopy part introduces the special features connected with using beams in spectroscopy and then goes on to discuss the subject, going through the spectrum from low to high frequencies. The surface scattering part introduces general instrumentation problems, followed by a series of chapters in which elastic, rotationally inelastic, single-phonon, multi-phonon and chemical scattering are discussed. Scattering from non-ordered surfaces is covered separately. The emphasis throughout is on experimental methods, which includes discussions on data analysis and calibrations. Numerous examples of data are shown and to allow for the understanding of these the theory underlying the most common measurements is also presented.This comprehensive handbook describes new experimental approaches for the growing number of chemists, physicists, and engineers working with atomic and molecular beams. With an emphasis on aspects of design, construction and proper data analysis, contributors explore many topics of microscopic chemical physics such as elastic, inelastic, and reactive molecular collisions, clusters, and free-standing jets. Also included are descriptions of experimental set-ups and examples of data obtained in molecular beam experiments, with clear explanations of their significance and importance. The book is a practical guide that will help in planning the structure of experiments and analysing their results.

The chemical physics of atomic and molecular clusters : Varenna on Lake Como, Villa Monastero, 28 June-7 July 1988
Amsterdam ; New York : North-Holland ; New York, N.Y., U.S.A. : Sole distributors for the USA and Canada, Elsevier Science Pub. Co., 1990.This volume of the Enrico Fermi Summer School proceedings is concerned with the chemical physics of atomic and molecular clusters of medium and large size which are defined as clusters too large to yield rotationally resolved spectra. In practice this means from trimers and tetramers up. By limiting the field a separation is made between the study of systems of well-known structures (for which the position of each of their fragments is well known) from systems that, because of their dynamical or ``fluid'' status or because of the too large number of components, have to be studied with methods which are intrinsically more statistic.
