Continuum X-Ray Emission in Adiabatic Heavy Ion-Atom Collisions

  • Chapter
Quantum Electrodynamics of Strong Fields

Part of the book series: NATO Advanced Study Institutes Series ((NSSB,volume 80))

Abstract

A brief review of the current status of experiments on quasimolecular x-ray production in heavy ion collisions is given. Facts about continuum x-ray emissions learned from measurements on lighter systems provide the groundwork for the extension of studies to the heaviest possible collision systems. Increasingly detailed experiments explore the differential properties of the molecular orbital x-rays and provide for simpler and more direct comparisons between experiment and calculation.

Invited speaker NATO International School on Quantum Electrodynamics of Strong Fields, Lahnstein/Rein, West Germany.
