Abstract
Experimental developments, in particular improved laser-optical pumping techniques, have stimulated collision studies with electronically excited states. Such systems can be adjusted with great flexibility to the special requirements of the investigated phenomena. For example, laser-prepared collision partners can carry initial alignment and orientation and thus illuminate the role of “shape” and “rotation” of the initial atomic state.
