Ebook Particle induced electron emission I (Springer tracts in modem physics, Volume 122)

Ebook "Particle induced electron emission I (Springer tracts in modem physics, Volume 122)" discusses collision-induced electron emission from nearly free-electron metals by ion or electron impact. This subject is, as is well known, of acute importance in understanding plasma-wall interactions in thermonuclear reactors. It is also the basis for one of the most exciting technological developments of the last few years - scanning electron miscroscopy.
