This monograph addresses researchers and students. It is a modern presentation of time-dependent methods for studying problems of scattering theory in classical and quantum mechanics. Particular attention is paid to long-range potentials. For a large class of interactions the existence of the asymptotic velocity and the asymptotic completeness of the wave operators is shown. The book is self-contained and explains in detail concepts that deepen the understanding. A special feature is its emphasis to show the beautiful analogy between classical and quantum scattering theory.

A system of N non-relativistic classical particles interacting with pair potentials is described by a Hamiltonian of the form (0.0.1) This Hamiltonian generates a flow (t) on the phase space JR3N x JR3N. An analogous system of N quantum particles is described by a Hamiltonian of the form N 1 H := -L -Llj + L lij(Xi - Xj)' (0.0.2) j=l 2mj l$i
