Starting with a brief review of molecular angular momentum, the text goes on to consider resonant absorption, fluorescence, photodissociation and photoionization, as well as collisions and static fields. A variety of macroscopic effects are considered, among them angular distribution and the polarization of emitted light, ground state depopulation, laser-induced dichroism, the effect of collisions and external magnetic and electric field effects. Most examples in the book are for diatomic molecules, but symmetric-top polyatomic molecules are also included. The book concludes with a short appendix of essential formulae, tables for vector calculus, spherical functions, Wigner rotation matrices, Clebsch-Gordan coefficients, and methods for expansion over irreducible tensors.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51928808685856,"sku":"NEW0521673445","price":83.12,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/optical-polarization-of-molecules-cambridge-monographs-on-atomic-molecular-and-chemical-physics-series-number-4-0521673445","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
