Publisher's Synopsis
The conference brought together people working in various areas of atomic & molecular physics on one hand and the plasma physics on the other. Atomic and molecular processes, such as energy levels, radiative rates and scattering cross sections, play an important role in diagnostics and modeling of a variety of plasmas, such as astrophysical, fusion, lasing, and solar. Atomic processes also help in understanding the dynamics and compositions of these plasmas and hence the conference was useful for those who generate, assess, and apply the atomic & molecular data in understanding plasmas.
