Abstract
This thesis discusses determination of cross sections for atomic and molecular collision processes using the technique of merging beams. The design of a merging beams apparatus is outlined, and detailed design considerations for the beam-forming portion of the apparatus are given. Results of preliminary testing of the beam-forming portion of the apparatus show that the beams produced have the high current and low divergence required for merging beams experiments.
