Sputtering in Planetary Science

Abstract

The contributions to this volume are based on invited review lectures presented at a symposium on fundamental processes in sputtering (SPUT92), attended by 82 active researchers in the field . Eight contributions cover recoil processes, or `collisional sputtering', and six contributions cover electronic processes, or `electronic sputtering'. The last two contributions cover two of six application areas presented at SPUT92, and an introductory chapter was added by the editor. The book emphasizes developments over the past decade and offers comprehensive reviews on most active research areas in the field of sputtering by particle bombardment, with the emphasis on fundamental physical and chemical processes.
