Abstract
In his introduction to Scoles’ book “Atomic and Molecular Beam Methods” [1], Fenn points out that atomic beams, which preceded molecular beams, were developed in, and for several decades confined to, physics departments. Today, however, notes Fenn, molecular beams have considerably more applications than their atomic precedents and much of their more recent development took place in chemistry departments [1]. Several papers in the present volume illustrate his point.

Atoms of simple level structure can be cooled to the micro- and even nano-Kelvin regime [2]. Cooling molecules to subKelvin temperatures is considerably more difficult; see, for instance, J.D. Weinstein et al, Nature, 395, 148 (1998).
