Our relativistic continuum distorted-wave theory accounts  extremely well for the simultaneous behaviour of the electron with  respect to the nuclear charges of the projectile and the target. \u003cbr\u003e  This is the first book developed in this subject. Containing many  diagrams and tables, and fully referenced, it goes beyond chapters in  previous books. The relativistic continuum distorted-wave theory  developed by the authors group, is shown to be fully Hermitean.  Detailed mathematics are provided in nine appendices.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2000-09-30\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780306464249\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4615-4275-9\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 311\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer US","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46312387281036,"sku":"9780306464249","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780306464249.jpg?v=1771525117","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9780306464249","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
