The theory of atomic collisions

TLDR
The perturbation theory has been applied to many-body problems and applications, such as electron collisions with atoms, collisions between atomic systems, nuclear collisions, and certain aspects of two-body systems under relativistic collisions.
Abstract
Volume II of this work covers many-body problems and applications of the theory to electron collisions with atoms, collisions between atomic systems, nuclear collisions, certain aspects of two-body systems under relativistic collisions, and the use of time-dependent perturbation theory. Despite the amount of work carried out since this book was first published, the underlying theory presented here remains both sound and of practical value to all theoretical physicists.

Unified theory of nuclear reactions

TL;DR: In this article, a new formulation of the theory of nuclear reactions based on the properties of a generalized "optical" potential is presented, where the real and imaginary part of this potential satisfy a dispersion type relation while its poles give rise to resonances in nuclear reactions.
