Charged particle and photon interactions with matter; Recent advances, applications, and interfaces

Hatano, Yoshihiko; Katsumura, Yosuke; Mozumder, A.*

The edition of this book has been motivated by strongly positive comments on the former edition of the book with a similar title "Charged Particle and Photon Interactions with Matter. Chemical, Physicochemical, and Biological Consequences with Applications.", eds. A.Mozumder and Y.Hatano, Marcel Dekker, New York (2004), which was motivated by a long term (1985-1995) IAEA-project to survey the basic research of the entitled subjects accomplished in the past 100 years after the big findings of ionizing radiation by Curie and Roentgen. The editors received soon after the publication of the former version the strongly positive comments on it from international academic communities asking them to edit further the latter version to survey further the recent advances with future perspectives, applications, and interfaces. Upon these requests, therefore, this book with 36 chapters has been edited.
