Theory of Atomic and Molecular Clusters, Softcover reprint of the original 1st ed. 1999
With a Glimpse at Experiments
Coll. Springer Series in Cluster Physics

The book summarises contemporary knowledge about the theory of atomic and molecular clusters. New results are discussed on a high theoretical level. Access to this field of research is given by an explanation of the various subjects in introductory chapters.
