Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Classical and quantal nonrelativistic scattering between simple atomic systems is reviewed, and most approximations currently used in calculations on electron capture are discussed. The OBK interaction is generalized to include capture from neutral atoms by singly charged many-electron ions; the sum over the squares of the vector coupling coefficients is affected in the formula for the OBK cross section for p-orbital capture by protons into H(ns). The cross section for H(+) + H(1s) to H(Sigma n1) + H(+) at high impact energies is determined classically. The second Born amplitudes at high impact energies for H(+) + H(1s) to H(1s) + H(+) and H(+) + D(1s) to H(1s) + D(+) are evaluated approximately using the Green's function of the post Hamiltonian. Two modifications of Thomas' classical model for heavy atoms are proposed, and corresponding cross sections are calculated for H(+) + B to H(Sigma n1) + B(+) with B = O, N, Ne, A, Kr, Xe. A semiclassical theory is developed for charge transfer in alkali atom-alkali-ion collision at low impact velocities, and cross sections are obtained for H, Li, Na, K, Rb, Cs. OBK cross sections are calculated for s-orbital capture from He(1s(2)), N((4)S), O((3)P), and p-orbital capture from N((4)S), O((3)P), all for incident protons capturing into H(1s). Born prior and post cross sections are calculated for H(+) + O((3)P) to H(1s) + O(+)((4)S) and H(1s) + H(1s) to H( - )(1s(2)) + H(+).
