Don Madison's role in advancing our understanding of atomic/molecule

Abstract

This research delves into the remarkable scientific career and contributions of Dr. Don Madison in the field of atomic collision. The core of his work is primarily split across four domains: atomic 3-body distorted-wave, molecular 3-body distorted-wave, the molecular 4-body problem, and the impact of both light and heavy charged particles. The extensive study will elucidate the breadth and depth of his scholarly achievements in these areas. During my presentation, I will focus on the development of the Molecular 3-body distorted wave, a concept that employs a fully quantum mechanical approach where all particles are treated quantum mechanically. Exploration will be conducted into the role of Post-Collision Interaction, and an evaluation will be made to determine how significantly molecular orientation contributes to our computations. Subsequently, a comparison between the theoretical calculations and experimental measurements will be made.
