The contributors to the book are world-renowned specialists.
The book is unique in that it covers a wide spectrum of topics that
will be of great interest to beginners as well as experts. Recent data
on ultrafast phenomena from the recently established world-class
laser-driven accelerators facilities in the US, France and Japan are
reviewed.
There has not been a significant book covering the important
field of radiation chemistry for the last 5 years. This timely book,
which includes highlights of recent work, will appeal not only to the
specialists working in the area but also to other researchers involved
in related specialties.
