Title: Imaging in molecular dynamics
Description: "Charged particle imaging has revolutionized experimental studies of photodissociation and bimolecular collisions. Written in a tutorial style by some of the key practitioners in the field, this book gives a comprehensive account of the technique and describes many of its recent applications."

"The book is split into two parts. Part I is intended as a series of tutorials. It explains the basic principles of the experiment and the numerical methods involved in interpreting experimental data. After an historical introduction, this section contains a discussion of the basic experiment and goes on to review image reconstruction techniques. The final chapters discuss alternative approaches to charged particle imaging and explore the possibility of employing the technique in conjunction with femtosecond pump-probe methods to study the excited state dynamics of molecules."

"Part II describes a number of different applications. These chapters are more directly research oriented, the aim being to introduce the reader to the possibilities for future experiments. The first chapter describes the power of coincidence imaging detection. The possibilities for probing bimolecular collisions are explored in the following chapters and the final chapter introduces a new approach to ion imaging and velocity mapping called slice imaging." "This comprehensive book will be of primary interest to researchers and graduate students working in chemical and molecular physics who require an overview of the subject as well as ideas for future experiments."--Jacket.
