Relativistic Theory of Atoms and Molecules II

Relativistic effects are of major importance for understan-ding the properties of heavier atoms and molecules. Thisbook is still the only comprehensive bibliography on relatedcalculations. The material is organized by subject into ta-bles containing a concise characterization. Together withVolume I (Lecture Notes in Chemistry Vol. 41, ISBN3-540-17167-3) the literature until 1992 is now covered and6577 references, with titles, are given in the two books.The book will provide aconvenient reference for theoreticalchemists and atomic and molecular physicists interested inthe properties of heavier elements.Contents: Introduction - One-particle problems - Quantumelectrodynamical effects - Multielectron atoms: methods -Multielectron atoms: results - Symmetry - Molecular calcula-tions - Solid-state theory - Relativistic effects and heavy-element chemistry - Corrections to Volume I - Some commentson notations and terminology - List of acronyms and symbols- Bibliography.
