This book describes the computational methods most frequently used to deal with the
interaction of charged particles, notably electrons, with condensed matter. Both elastic and
inelastic scattering phenomena are discussed, and methods for calculating the relevant
cross sections are explained in a rigorous but simple way. It provides readers with all the
information they need in order to write their own Monte Carlo code and to simulate the
transport of fast particles in condensed matter. Many numerical and experimental examples …
